Wildlife Hazards and Aviation Conflicts between aircraft and wildlife have occurred since the dawn of aviation. Orville Wright was the pilot associated with the first documented bird strike in 1905 during a flight over Dayton, Ohio. The first fatality associated with a wildlife strike occurred on April 3, 1912, when Calbraith Rodgers died after his aircraft struck a gull and crashed in Long Beach, California. Photo 1: Calbraith Rodgers in flight. Source: Pioneers of Flight (pioneersofflight.si.edu). FAA and others have performed research regarding wildlife strikes for approximately five decades; FAA and other federal agencies have: • Tracked wildlife strike data since 1990 to identify the species struck most, the altitudes at which strikes occur most frequently, the type and extent of aircraft damage, and impact

    FRENCH VALLEY AIRPORT (F70) 37600 Sky Canyon Dr. Murrieta, CA Phone: 951-600-7297 Riverside FAA FSDO Complaint Line: (951) 276-6701 Visit the F70 website for additional information regarding the airport and procedures at www.rcfva.org Federal Aviation Administration FAA Headquarters 800 Independence Ave., SW Washington, DC 20591 www.faa.gov/contact Feedback is always appreciated at [email protected] INTRODUCTION In response to community interest, this booklet was developed to provide an overview of Airport operations and the complaint process. It will explain how and what aircraft operate in vicinity of F70, their interaction with our neighbors, and how complaints are handled. (F70 is the identifier selected by Federal Aviation Administration for the French Valley Airport. All airports have a three- character identifier; local examples are ONT for Ontario International Airport and LAX for Los Angeles Airport.) AIRPORT HISTORY In the late 1970s, discussion and planning began on relocating the existing Rancho California Airport due, in part, to safety deficiencies. In addition, the airport was leased to the County with the owner not wanting to renew the lease. An evaluation leading to the identification and selection of potential new sites was undertaken in June 1983. In June 1985 the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved a resolution designating the French Valley site as the replacement site for the existing Rancho California Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration approved the French Valley Airport Layout plan in 1985 and funded four grants for land acquisition. Initial construction of French Valley Airport began in October 1987 and was completed in April 1989.

When purchased from military disposals immediately after WWII, the USAAF serial number and Lockheed c/n were quoted on the Bill of Sale. Subsequent research reveals that those sold from Kingman AZ often quoted a mis-matched c/n, probably based a listing that differs from the official company Lockheed number/USAAF serial tie-ups. This dubious c/n was then given to CAA as part of the registration paperwork, and accompanied the aircraft for its civil life.
