Hey everyone, this is Collin with Easy Aviation English and in this video we will be talking

情態副詞

about bird strikes. But first, let's define what a bird strike is. A bird strike is basically

a collision between a bird or a flock of birds and an aircraft. It usually occurs close to

an airport either during the takeoff or landing phase of flight. Contributing factors that

may increase the risk of bird strikes include the seasonal migration where large flocks

of birds fly large distances. A bird's habitat may be located close to an airport. A bird's

habitat may include a landfill (as you see in this photo) as well as any bodies of water

such as lakes or ponds. Encountering a bird in flight can be dangerous because it can

cause significant damage to an airplane. A bird strike may damage an aircraft's windscreen

(as you can see in this photo) as well as an aircraft's wing or even engine. Probably

the most famous example of a bird strike that everyone remembers occurred in 2009 when a

US Airways flight departing New York's LaGuardia airport hit multiple birds causing an engine

failure in both engines. But luckily the aircraft successfully landed in the Hudson River. Some

ways to reduce the risk of a bird strike include advisories, either from air traffic control

or other pilots in the area warning of birds as well as noise generators such as this propane

cannon that's designed to startle birds. Another alternative is to capture and relocate birds

away from an airport. So here are a few words I want you all to remember from today's lesson.

The first one is "Flock", or a group of birds. "Collision", which is an object hitting against

another, "Hazard", which the threat or possibility of danger and "Advisory", an announcement

or warning of danger. But before we leave, I want to ask you a few questions. What airport

that you know of have the highest threat of bird strikes? What do you do to prevent bird

strikes when you fly? What would you do if you hit a bird during takeoff? I want to thank

you all for watching this short video and if you want to keep practicing your english
