doc.fixit Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Read in the Telegraph recently that there were over 2200 reported bird strikes on aircraft at British airports. I was wondering how this related to bird strikes on wind generators because there seems to be such a lot about the perils of windmills for birds but no mention of the existing perils to birds from aircraft. I have no axe to grind, just find it odd how selective the news is on this matter .............. or am I wrong ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotsAlan Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I always thought introduced mammals were the biggest danger to birds. Fat cats and long tails..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxman1980 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 They should introduce no fly zones around thesr things. Anything flying into the area will be shot. That will save the birds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
