"This posting has generated a lot of interest so I spent a few hours researching the incident. I was able to contact the wildlife rescue center in Greece that received the bird. It suffered a broken wing and was immobilized for several weeks. It has been in rehab for over one year -- it still can't fully extend its damaged wing. It is now in a large aviary. It MAY regain full use of its wing in 1-2 years."

This refers to the video posted below that shows this vulture being hit by the blade and falling to the ground. I am amazed that it only broke it's wing but am delighted that it not only survived but that there is a possibility it might fly again. HURRAY!!
