An Evaluation of the Bird /Aircraft Strike Hazard at Selected United Kingdom Bases: RAF Mildenhall, RAF Alconbury, RAF Upper Heyford, RAF Bentwaters, RAF Fairford, RAF Lakenheath, and RAF Woodbridge.

Abstract

Selected United Kingdom air bases were surveyed from 3 November to 4 December 1978 by the Air Force Engineering and Services Center's Bird/Aircraft Strike Hazard Team. During this period, operational and environmental factors which combine to create bird strike hazards at each location were observed. Specific recommendations based on observations are provided to reduce the bird strike hazard. (Author)
