Listen "Wildlife hazards from the pilot's perspective with Capt. Brian Greeves"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode Kylie Patrick is joined by Captain Brian Greeves, Director of Aviation Solutions and a safety and technical consultant for the Australian & International Pilots Associations. We discuss some of the challenges pilots face when confronted with wildlife hazards and identify gaps in training to help pilots mitigate strikes. For the audio transmission shared in this episode, we note that there is no intended criticism of the crew or ATC. Rather, we see these examples as important learning experiences to help inform future decision making relating to wildlife hazard management in aviation.
