This inaugural collaboration of the Royal Entomological Society and Royal Aeronautical Society will explore the various ways in which insects can adversely affect aircraft operations, such as through sludge accretion on wings and disturbance in the cockpit! It will also describe how RADAR can be used to detect insects at altitude and to understand their behaviour, which is relevant to finding solutions to the problems they cause.

What areas will this event cover?

Examination of aircraft and insect operational interaction
Examination of using RADAR to detect high altitude insects
Test run for a further RAeS/RES event, expanded in size and scope



What benefits will delegates gain from attending?

An understanding of insect impact on aircraft operational safety.
An understanding of using RADAR to examine insect behaviour at high altitude .
Opportunity to suggest topics for further RAeS and RES collaboration.



As the world’s only professional body dedicated to the aerospace community, we exist to further the advancement of aeronautical art, science and engineering around the world.
