Why Planes Don't Have Bird Barriers

You've probably noticed that planes don't have those bird barriers you see on bridges, right? Well, here's the deal: planes are built tough, with materials that can handle a bird strike without falling apart. Plus, adding barriers could mess with the aerodynamics and make flying less efficient. Pilots also keep an eye out and try to avoid birds whenever possible. But hey, accidents happen, and when a bird does collide with a plane, it's usually not a big deal thanks to rigorous safety standards and design considerations.
