The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) plans to spend close to Sh1 billion to curb bird strike menace, which has been blamed for emergency landings that have cost airlines billions of shillings in engine damages.

The initiative, to be initially installed at the country’s three premier airports, is intended to bar the feathered creatures, which at times use the same flight paths and levels as planes.
