Air France 777 Returns to JFK After Cockpit Burning Smell

The crew of an Air France Boeing 777-300ER declared a PAN-PAN and returned to New York's JFK Airport after reporting a possible bird strike and a burning cockpit smell during their initial climb. Bound for Paris, the pilots donned oxygen masks, halted their ascent, and executed an overweight ILS landing on Runway 22L. The widebody touched down safely and was met by emergency equipment for a brake inspection. This event serves as a practical reminder of the importance of prompt decision-making when facing compounding anomalies shortly after rotation.
