✈️ Bird Strike Alert! A bird strike happens when a bird collides with an aircraft during flight, takeoff, or landing. This can also include collisions with bats or ground animals. 🛩️ Safety Risk: Bird strikes pose a serious threat, especially to smaller aircraft (structural damage) and jet engines (thrust loss). 🛩️ Common Phases: Strikes are most likely during takeoff, climb, approach, and landing—low altitudes where birds are active. 🛩️ Daylight Hours: Most bird strikes occur during the day when birds are more active. Effects on Aircraft 🛩️ Small Aircraft: Risk of structural damage, windshield penetration, or control surface impact. 🛩️ Jet Aircraft: Engine ingestion can cause thrust loss, engine failure, or complete loss of control. 🛩️ Instruments: Damage to Pitot Static Systems can lead to incorrect instrument readings. Critical Scenarios 🛩️ Engine Failure: Engine power loss during takeoff is critical, especially for non-Performance A aircraft. 🛩️ Large Flocks: Ingestion of multiple birds or larger species can lead to catastrophic consequences. Bird strikes remain a significant aviation hazard, demanding effective prevention and response strategies. #birdstrike #aviation #aircraft #AircraftCrash #AircraftSafety #SasidharanMurugan #Itzmemsd

As California battles raging wildfires, Canadian Super Scoopers are proving indispensable. The CL-415 amphibious aircraft, capable of scooping 1,600 gallons of water in just 12 seconds, offers unmatched speed and efficiency in firefighting efforts. With a wingspan of 93 feet and speeds up to 350 kmph, these technological marvels can mix water with foam for optimal fire suppression. Despite setbacks like drone collisions, the resilience of these aircraft and their crews highlights the importance of innovation in combating climate-induced disasters. Together, we can fight back and protect lives, homes, and ecosystems. #Wildfires #SuperScoopers #CL415 #ClimateAction #Firefighting Read More: https://lnkd.in/gFuCZa7V

One of my favorite standup comedians is Ron White who I’m sure most know. In one of his bits he talks about a man who thought he was in such good shape at the age of 53 that he could tolerate the winds of class 3 hurricane by tying himself to a tree. Ron White goes on to say “Alright, let me explain something to ya; it isn’t THAT the wind is blowing, it’s WHAT the wind is blowing! If you get hit with a Volvo, it doesn’t really matter how many sit-ups you did that morning.” I can’t help but think of this bit when some of these drone manufactures try to justify their lobbying practices. Stating “well… DJI spends more money on lobbying than we do!” “Alright, let me explain something to these drone manufacturers, it’s not THAT you’re lobbying, it’s WHAT you’re lobbying for that matters. When you're lobbying efforts put American lives at risk stripping public safety officials of life saving tools, it doesn’t matter exactly how much you spend on lobbying.” Your justifications are as weak as your products and are as shallow as your marketing efforts. You’re not fooling anyone who is actually paying attention. Do better, be better! https://lnkd.in/dFErAacQ Skydio BRINC AUVSI — Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International #SkydioAscend
