> There is no debate. Sure there is. On average there are about 13000 bird strikes a year. What fraction of those result in a fatality? The FAA says a bit under 400 pilots die every year, however since 1990 there have been just 292 fatalities globally that can be attributed to wildlife strikes (and not all are birds). That is a pretty clear repudiation of any claim that hitting a drone has a "high chance of being fatal." |
