Inspection of the Aircraft after a Bird Strike
WARNING:
THERE IS A POSSIBLE HEALTH RISK TO PERSONNEL WHO DO MAINTENANCE TASKS AFTER A BIRD STRIKE. THE SAFETY MEASURES THAT FOLLOW ARE RECOMMENDED:
- USE DISPOSABLE GLOVES.
- USE CUT RESISTANT GLOVES OVER THE DISPOSABLE GLOVES.
- USE A DISPOSABLE COVERALL IF THERE IS A RISK OF BODY CONTACT WITH THE BIRD REMAINS (ORGANIC MATTER) DURING FEATHER COLLECTION OR ENGINE CLEANING.
- DO NOT USE PRESSURIZED AIR OR WATER TO CLEAN THE PARTS WHICH WERE IN CONTACT WITH THE BIRD.
- REMOVE THE BIRD REMAINS AND PUT THEM IN A PLASTIC BAG.
- DO NOT TOUCH YOUR FACE, EYES, NOSE, ETC. WITH YOUR GLOVES.
- REMOVE THE GLOVES AND THE DISPOSABLE COVERALL AND PUT THEM IN THE SAME PLASTIC BAG AS THE REMAINS. SEAL THE BAG.
- DISCARD THE BAG AS YOU DO FOR USUAL GARBAGE.
- CAREFULLY WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER.
WARNING:
PUT THE SAFETY DEVICES AND THE WARNING NOTICES IN POSITION BEFORE YOU START A TASK ON OR NEAR:
- THE FLIGHT CONTROLS
- THE FLIGHT CONTROL SURFACES
- THE LANDING GEAR AND THE RELATED DOORS
- COMPONENTS THAT MOVE.
WARNING:
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE PROBES ON THE GROUND. THE PROBES CAN STAY HOT FOR A LONG TIME AND WILL BURN YOU.
WARNING:
BEFORE YOU DO A MAINTENANCE TASK NEAR THE RADOME (IN THE AREA OF 5 METERS/16.4 FT FROM THE WEATHER RADAR ANTENNA AND IN AN ARC OF 135 DEG. ON EACH SIDE OF THE AIRCRAFT CENTERLINE), MAKE SURE THAT THE RADAR DOES NOT OPERATE. THIS WILL PREVENT INJURY TO PERSONNEL BECAUSE OF EMISSIONS AND MOVEMENT OF THE RADAR ANTENNA.
WARNING:
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE AND THE ADJACENT COMPONENTS AFTER ENGINE SHUTDOWN. THE ENGINE, THE ENGINE OIL AND THE ADJACENT COMPONENTS CAN STAY HOT FOR A LONG TIME. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS INSTRUCTION, INJURY CAN OCCUR.
WARNING:
BEFORE YOU DO WORK ON OR NEAR THE ENGINES, PUT A WARNING NOTICE IN THE COCKPIT. THIS WARNING NOTICE MUST TELL PERSONS NOT TO START THE ENGINES DURING THE PROCEDURE. IF THE ENGINES START WHILE YOU ARE NEAR THEM, THE SUCTION CAN PULL YOU INTO OR AGAINST THE AIR INTAKE. THIS CAN KILL YOU OR CAUSE INJURY TO YOU.
CAUTION:
BEFORE YOU DO WORK ON AN EXTERNAL SURFACE OF THE AIRCRAFT, MAKE SURE THAT THIS SURFACE HAS A CORRECT PROTECTION. IF THE PROTECTION IS NOT CORRECT, YOU CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SURFACE.
1. Reason for the JobAfter a flight crew report of bird strike events, you must do the inspections that follow before the subsequent flight.
Airbus recommends that you do the inspection immediately.
NOTE: It is not easy to find and see signs of bird strike after time and/or bad weather.

A. General Information
(1) Description of the inspection procedure
(a) The inspections are divided into three steps:
1 First step: Walk-around visual inspection
The first step is a walk-around visual inspection of all aircraft surfaces. This is to find signs of bird strike and/or damage (identification of impacted areas).
2 Second step: Cleaning of bird strike signs
3 Third step: Inspection
Examples:
First step:
You find signs of bird strike during the walk-around on the left windshield and on the left engine fan.
Second step:
You clean the signs of bird strike.
Third step:
You do an inspection of the forward fuselage and the left engine/nacelle.
(2) Inspection preparation
(a) Before you start, we recommend that you get information from the crew about the flight conditions:
(c) You must do a check of all the events in the crew report and in the PFR in addition/conjunction with this inspection.

(1) Put an ACCESS PLATFORM 12M (40 FT) - ADJUSTABLE in position (if necessary) adjacent to the signs of bird strike or damaged area(s).
(2) The persons that do the cleaning must put on BOOT - RUBBER, GLOVES - RUBBER, GOGGLES - PROTECTIVE and OVERALL WITH HOOD - WATERPROOF.
(3) Before cleaning, use a marking pen to identify the damaged area.
(4) Collect organic material for analysis.
(b) For small pieces of bird feathers and/or tissue, remove and put them in a re-sealable BAG - PLASTIC.
(c) For blood smears or tissue on the surface, remove them with a paper towel, gauze or alcohol wipe and put them in a re-sealable BAG - PLASTIC. Include the material that you used for the removal.
(e) Send the BAG - PLASTIC with the collected bird remains to the nearest local airport-operations wildlife-administrator to determine the species.
(5) Remove the remaining organic material.
(a) Put all the remaining pieces of bird, GLOVES - RUBBER and other items you will discard in another BAG - PLASTIC. Seal the BAG - PLASTIC and discard it correctly.
(b) Wash your hands with soap and water.

(2) The persons that do the cleaning must put on BOOT - RUBBER, GLOVES - RUBBER, GOGGLES - PROTECTIVE and OVERALL WITH HOOD - WATERPROOF.
(3) Before cleaning, use a marking pen to identify the damaged area.
(4) Collect organic material for analysis.
NOTE: If you must determine the bird species because of the local regulations, Airbus recommends that you do the steps that follow. If not, you can remove the bird remains and do the cleaning step immediately.
(a) For large pieces of bird, remove different types of feathers (breast, back, wing, tail) and put them in a re-sealable BAG - PLASTIC. (b) For small pieces of bird feathers and/or tissue, remove and put them in a re-sealable BAG - PLASTIC.
(c) For blood smears or tissue on the surface, remove them with a paper towel, gauze or alcohol wipe and put them in a re-sealable BAG - PLASTIC. Include the material that you used for the removal.
NOTE: It is not permitted to use water to remove blood smears or tissue because water causes mold. Mold causes damage to the material necessary to determine the bird species.
(d) Seal the BAG - PLASTIC and attach a label with the date, aircraft registration number and area that the remains came from. (e) Send the BAG - PLASTIC with the collected bird remains to the nearest local airport-operations wildlife-administrator to determine the species.
(5) Remove the remaining organic material.
(a) Put all the remaining pieces of bird, GLOVES - RUBBER and other items you will discard in another BAG - PLASTIC. Seal the BAG - PLASTIC and discard it correctly.
