Mythcon Programs

This is the program book for Mythcon 36, held in conjunction with The Tolkien Society.

"The Mythopoeic Society have organised a stream of papers and several events at Tolkien 2005. They have produced a booklet for all attendees, which you should find in the bag you were given when you registered. The booklet doubles as both the Mythcon 36 Program Book (Tolkien 2005 incorporates Mythcon 36) and as a special double issue of Mythprint, the monthly bulletin of the Mythopoeic Society. It includes extra details of the Mythopoeic Society events. Other features include some memories of past Mythcons, including the …

Raptor Strike Avoidance At Seattle-Tacoma International Airport: A Biological Approach, Clifford Anderson, Steve Osmek

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

In June 2001 we initiated a Raptor Strike Avoidance Program to monitor raptor activity and develop a biologically-based approach to reduce raptor densities at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), King County, WA. Weekly surveys established the species, sighting frequencies, and distributions of raptors. Red-tailed Hawks (RTHAs), our most common raptor, occur as both resident and migrant/wintering hawks. We attached colored leg bands, backpack radio-transmitters and wing-tags to 8 of 12 resident RTHAs to identify individuals, locate nests and to assist in defining territories. These adult RTHAs were released onsite with the expectation that they would act as “sentinel” hawks by driving …

Trash And Water: Managing On-Airport Wildlife Attractants At Paine Field, Washington, Matthew R. Stevens, Laurence M. Schafer, Brian E. Washburn

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

Identifying and addressing land uses on or near airports that attract wildlife hazardous to aviation, such as refuse and water management facilities, is an important component of an integrated approach to reduce wildlife-aircraft collisions. Similar to most airports, Snohomish County Airport (Paine Field) has recently been involved with construction of on-airfield stormwater management structures. In addition, Snohomish County built a new trash-transfer facility on airport property during 2002-2003. The airport, USDA Wildlife Services, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) provided considerable input into the design and landscaping around the transfer facility and in the redesign of a stormwater detention pond/wetland …

The Biological Protection Of The Czech Air Force´S., Milan Žuffa-Kunčo

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

This contribution compares all known collisions of the Czech Air Force’s aircraft with birds, from 2000 to 2004. In the course of this period we have assayed 122 cases altogether. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been possible to obtain all needed data due to whether objective or subjective reasons. We have got information: * on the collision time in 115 cases (94% of all cases), * on the velocity of aircraft by the collision in 98 cases (80% of all cases), * on the altitude of aircraft by the collision in 105 cases (86% of all cases), * on location of the …

Wildlife Risk Management At Vancouver International Airport, Gary F. Searing

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

The Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is the second busiest airport in Canada. YVR is located on Sea Island in the Fraser River Estuary - a world-class wintering and staging area for hundreds of thousands of migratory birds. The Fraser Delta supports Canada’s largest wintering populations of waterfowl, shorebirds, and raptors. The large number of aircraft movements and the presence of many birds near YVR pose a wide range of considerable aviation safety hazards. Until the late 1980s when a full-time Wildlife Control Program (WCP) was initiated, YVR had the highest number of bird strikes of any Canadian commercial airport. Although …

Enhancement Of The Faa’S On-Line Wildlife Aircraft Strike Database With An Interactive Graphics Capability, Archie M. Dickey, Allen R. Newman, Michel Hovan

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (Prescott, AZ, USA) was awarded a grant from the William J. Hughes FAA Technical Center in October 1999 to develop and maintain a web site dealing with a wide variety of airport safety wildlife concerns. Initially, the web site enabled users to access related topics such as wildlife management (at/near airports), bird identification information, FAA wildlife management guidelines, education, pictures, current news, upcoming meetings and training, available jobs and discussion/forum sections. In April 2001, the web site was augmented with an on-line wildlife strike report (FAA Form 5200-7). Upon submittal on-line, “quick look” email notifications are sent …

Affordable, Real-Time, 3-D Avian Radar Networks For Centralized North American Bird Advisory Systems, Peter Weber, Tim J. Nohara, Sidney A. Gauthreaux Jr.

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

Affordable avian radar systems are being developed for Natural Resource Management (NRM) and bird aircraft strike hazard (BASH) applications. Recently [I], the authors have reported on mobile avian radar system requirements and on a system design that is state-of-the-art. In the present paper, the system design of a single avian radar is expanded in scope to address 3-D avian radar networks. These are essential to fully realize an affordable yet high-performance North American bird advisory system. The proposed avian radar network design includes antenna, transceiver and signal processor designs for the avian radar sensor, network design, sensor integration, and system …

Adopting An Integrated, Flexible Approach To Reducing The Birdstrike Risk From Canada Geese, Andy Baxter, Ian Witter

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 7th (2005)

Canada Geese overflying the runways at London’s Heathrow Airport have been struck on eleven occasions by aircraft during the last ten years. Four of these occurred during the pre-breeding season and seven during the post moult period. A monitoring study was initiated in 1999 to evaluate the movements of geese around the airport and determine appropriate mitigation strategies to reduce the risk of birdstrike. Moult sites within 13km of the airport were identified. 4,900 moulting geese were caught and fitted with colour rings and radio-transmitters between 1999 and 2004. 2,500 visits were made to over 300 sites resulting in over …
