A review of the hazards and mitigation for airstrikes from Canada geese in the Anchorage, Alaska bowl
Bird strikes to aircraft are a globally pervasive safety and economic concern. In particular, the Anchorage, Alaska area holds substantial risk for destructive collisions between birds and aircraft. An international airport, a municipal airport, a seaplane base, and a U.S. Air Force base are situate...
