verticalflyer 11 #7 May 12, 2003 Official film not out yet have to wait and see when Leo releases it, had a sneak preview a couple of months back and its stunning footage. The falcon's are incredible and the combination of man and bird in flight is great. Dont just talk about it, Do it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManBird 0 #8 May 12, 2003 Incidentally, I flew with a red tail hawk under canopy yesterday. Did a hop and pop and found myself about 50 feet above him. He was apparently curious, as he flew up to my level, and stayed within twenty feet off to my right for about fifteen seconds before taking off. It hadn't happened to me before, but from what I now hear, these birds are naturally curious about what else is in the air, and will come in to investigate. Really, really amazing visuals."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
