Saarbrücken Airport, located in Germany, actively manages bird activity in and around the runway area to ensure safe flight operations. The primary focus is on minimizing the risks posed by several bird species that frequently appear near the airfield.
The area surrounding the runway is especially sensitive, as bird presence there can interfere with aircraft takeoffs and landings. To address this, the airport implements targeted bird control strategies, including regular surveillance, habitat adjustments, and the use of deterrent systems such as the Purivox TA-RC System. These measures are part of a broader safety program aimed at reducing the potential for bird strikes and maintaining operational reliability.
