I don't speak Portuguese but this guy has a pretty cool passenger.

That is amazing! One of the coolest photos on the cover of Parachutist Magazine (June, 1999) is a parachutist in free fall with his pet falcon chasing him. When he opened, his falcon flew formation with him.

The skydiver is Norman Kent.

I agree Dan, now how cool is that!

Ever wonder if the Vulture wonders why he doesn’t taste like deer gluteus maximus ? Good thing he had on some solid kicks!

That is totally cool, John. Almost don’t need to speak Portuguese to know what he is saying…he’s one happy dude. That was one nice docking by the Vulture too!

Once when I was flying my ram air parachute back to the dropzone I had a Red Tail hawk join up on me just like the beginning of that video….he swooped in and set up at my 11 o’clock about 6 feet out in front of me and kept glancing over his shoulder. We flew like that for about 30 seconds or so and then he got bored and peeled off. I sounded just like the guy in that video, except in English.

We had a turkey buzzard come join us inside a B-52 once when we were flying a low level route near Big Bend....the docking did not go smoothly for the buzzard and he spatted on the aft bulkhead door... smelled like old vomit.
