Bugsy Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Going flying today and it's my first solo so I thought I'd take a picture of my new trainer, before I go.

Christine Animal Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Just saw on "30 Millions d'Amis" a man flying with his eagle. It was quite something. I wish there was a video.http://www.30millionsdamis.fr/france3/il-vole-avec-son-aigle.htmlThe eagle had lived in captivity until the age of seven and didn't know how to fly. He trained him by getting him to fly by the car to develop his muscles, then had to get him used to the parapente (paraglider? in English) without being afraid of it. The result is incredible with this two metre wide bird flying around with his master and coming on to his hand in flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Back home, no damage and I feel like I did when I first passed my driving test.[:)][:)]My first landing drew an applause from the other club members.............................talk about feeling apprehensive. When I asked my instructor if I could do a celebration inverted, low level fly-past, he advised against it......................[:D][:D][:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
