Despite the common belief that weather radar somehow reduces the incidence of birdstrike, I would say that it is pure bull!!!!!.

Perhaps would be one for "Mythbusters" to take on.

As far as altitudes attained by birds - some of the larger raptor species are known to achieve about 30 000', just what they were planning to do up there is unclear . . .

As far as the pulselite goes - I'm sorry, I haven't a clue.
