Doney Blanketed Airfield on Ascension Island Faces Bird Hazard
The Ascension Island airfield sits on lava rock and cinder terrain, with large Gooney birds gathering by the thousands to blanket runways. The Air Force has failed to deter them using smoke, gunfire, and dynamite, making five months annually hazardous for operations. Texas retail data 1930 to 1940 show 85,240 stores with 79,459 independents, 4,910 chains, and 886 other types.
