Default Falling with the Falcon

There is an article in the Feb/March Air and Space called Falling with the
Falcon by Tom Harpole. Unfortunatly, it is not available on the web, or at
least I could not find it.

This is an amazing story about Ken Franklin and his Peregrine Falcon,
Frightful. Ken is a 17,000 hour pilot who has trained Frightful to skydive
with him - they have reached 242 mph together in freefall. The article
references a National Geographic Movie called Terminal Velocity. Anyone see
it?

If you can get the Air and Space issue it is definitely worth the effort.

Michael
