We where on final into GNV on time and a fellow air shuttle (mesa) had maintenance problems leaving more than three hours late. But anyways they where cleared for takeoff we saw them lift off and about 150-200 agl the plane banked sharply to the right.

Tower: Air Shuttle do you have an engine failure?

Air Shuttle: No, we almost hit a fu@$ing terradactyl.

Air Shuttle: (after a good minute) Sir do you have a phone number for me?

Tower: Laughter (no words for some time) no, no that was so funny the other two guys are still rolling around on the ground. Air Shuttle contact departure good day.

Air Shuttle: Thanks good day.

Talked to the Capt. a couple of days later had a thrust reverser disagree eicas message aborted takeoff earlier. My Capt. and I had this perplexed looks on our faces when we heard the F bomb.
