Flying with Falcons
Posted: Fri May 05, 2006 9:50 am
Did any of you see this on National Geographic last night.
This guy who happens to fly hang gliders, microlights, helicopters and fixed wings, takes a falcon (real bird) up to 15 000 ft and sky dives with them.
They measured these falcons diving at over 150mph and breaking their dive just 1 second before hitting the ground.
Guess we will never be able to compete with what God has made
Try catch a repeat of the pogramme if you can, even if ts just to watch the flying machines.
