"During recent years the ongoing efforts to maintain safety standards at airports and especially the control of ever increasing bird populations in and around urban areas has lead to a more scientific approach to the problem.

In our ongoing endeavours with regard to our “Bird Hazard Management Program” Lanseria International Airport has joined in a new development program with the “Eagle Eye” system.

The “Eagle Eye” bird deterrent is an environmental friendly approach as a bird scare tactic that does no harm to the animal but discourages birds from inhabiting certain areas. The Eagle Eye makes use of sunlight to reflect intermittent light flashes in and around the areas covered that in turn causes an irritation to the birds and forces them to relocate elsewhere." Below is a letter of Reccomendation from the Quality Assurance Officer of Lanseria Airport, a Feedback Report as well as a Installation photograph and aerial views of the site.
