I saw a plane take off at an airport recently and I thought about how geese might be a problem there. Geese are known to fly into planes sometimes which is bad because it could hurt people on the plane or damage the aircraft itself. Some airports have measures in place like netting around runways to keep geese away but those can get damaged too if they’re not maintained properly. I wonder how much of a problem geese really cause for aviation security and whether there are any other ways that airports could prevent them from flying into planes without using nets or fencing.
I think you’re underestimating the impact on aviation safety. Every bird strike is a potential disaster waiting to happen and it’s not just about geese either. The fact that some people are avoiding accountability by blaming birds shows how little they care about actual problems, rather than taking responsibility for their own actions or finding solutions to mitigate risks.
birds aren’t the only problem here blue skies don’t guarantee safe landings yellow flags are just as deadly.
