180FW Hosts BASH Team Visit
The director and superintendent assigned to the 180th Fighter Wing Safety office and members of the Air National Guard’s Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard team prepare to conduct an aerial survey of wildlife habitats and migration patterns on and surrounding the airfield. Wildlife-related incidents were documented as the leading cause of F-16 fighter jet mishaps in the first quarter of 2017. In an effort to mitigate impact to the mission and maximize the safety of pilots, aircraft and the abundant local-area wildlife, the 180FW, Ohio Air National Guard, hosted a Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard team visit, April 13, 2017, to assess potential bird and other wildlife hazards located on and around the airfield at Toledo Express Airport in Swanton, Ohio.
