Embry-Riddle Research Show Drones Can Reduce Wildlife Strikes At Airports

Good points Raf, and there is always the escalating risks as you point out. I used to read to my kids the story “the king, the mice and the cheese”. We would do well to remember the solution being is to get along with one another. Knowing where the bird brains are and where they’re likely to be going could well be a significant part of the solution. The Pacific Flyway stretches from Alaska to Latin America and is a seasonal risk that won’t go away as long as we use aircraft. Here is where good judgement is needed more than ever. A little technology help may just tip the balance in a favourable direction for both of our species.
