Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A searchable guide to reported wildlife strikes across 609 airports, 327 species profiles, and 206 aircraft types.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

The explorer organizes the record along several dimensions rather than presenting a single ranking: airport, species, aircraft, state, season, flight phase, and reported damage. Its homepage covers 295,188 U.S. airport reports from 2021–2025 and identifies 327 named wildlife profiles, while traffic-normalized figures are limited to airports with a matching BTS scheduled-flight window. Method pages expose the fields, thresholds, periods, and stated limits behind the comparisons.
