Flying into JFK? You may owe your safe touchdown to the mighty falcon.

Great pod, such and interesting and often forgotten job. Really great camera work too, I love the shots of him baiting the falcons. And I think Bob the Falconer puts it best when he notes how interesting it is that in the age of computers and gps and such that falconing is still the most effective method for clearing run ways.

This is a very interesting look at a part of life we don't even know about, or know exists. What a great job to have, and service to our safety. You have to watch this pod.

Very informative. The segment is perfect for the piece - not too long and not too short - just enough to relay all the necessary information. The pod also highlights a neglected aspect of bird control population. In this day and age of modern technology, it is refreshing to see the durability of traditional methods in solving problems. Lastly, I think this piece also shows the positive contribution of falconry to society - an aspect not generally known. Overall, an informative and entertaining pod.

I always wondered how birds were cleared from a runway. I wonder if this is done in other airports around the world??? Cool pod!
