Session Title
Using Aircraft Transponder Data to Assess Airport Activities, and Strategies to Mitigate Bird Strikes
Track Title
Aviation
Event Description/Abstract
To date, a few operational efforts have been launched by the FAA to mitigate wildlife strikes away from the airport jurisdiction, and those do not include actions by general aviation (GA) pilots. This presentation explores the safety training of GA pilots using aeronautical decision-making concepts as a strategy to mitigate the risk of mishaps due to birds. Previous research, the FAA Serial Report #22, and final reports of GA aircraft accidents due to birds will be covered.
