So the world record is flying off the tallest building in the world and landing?  Cool film but weird record. H^^

Its really how once he spots the trainer he pulls the wings and dives straight for him. And he was way up there when he spotted the trainer.

I would like to see the view from the ground and see him just dive bomb in there!

Very cool to watch over the bird's shoulder as he searched to find his trainer, then like Doug said, folded his wings and dived to his target!

Neat clip.

There is no doubt that bird was on AUTO pilot!!  Programmed from the manufacturer to work that way and it wont ever change!!   :) :)  Always going for the perceived kill!!  ALWAYS!

Eagles are awesome!  This is a bald eagle doing varmint control here at TI (Trible International) this spring.  He's a little intimidating though.  Not sure whether to get out of the car- he stares you down.

As an Auburn fan I have seen the Eagle fly more than once:

Somewhere on this forum there are some pictures that Allen B. took of the Eagles at Buder park.

We were flying one day and a guy I had never seen drove up and asked if he could fly. We said sure. He went to the truck and got out 2 big boxes and proceeded to fly his Eagles. It was cool! If someone knows where or has those pictures please post them. We were really close up. 2 feet or so and they are majestic to say the least.
