    MYTH 4: Birds can cause a plane to crash. This is TRUE, and indeed very scary. If a bird hits a plane either on the hull or in the engine, it could potentially make the plane crash. However fear not, because if you would be so unlucky to get your plane engine taken out by a bird, most modern planes can operate using only one engine. To acoid this however, most modern airports are using "intelligent scarecrow" which sends out high pitch tones, to keep the feathered threat at a distance.
