Just a thought. I've heard allot about Sakers straight lining it but it's never happened to me. I also only know of one person who it's happened to. So who on the forum has lost their saker due to migration?

hi
had and flown sakers for over 16 years or more and never had one straight line yet.
I think that because the sakers are now so far into captive breeding that the migration instinct has slowly disappeared. It's not a problem that would ever put me off flying one.:)

Hi Jackson,

What I mean by migrating is the bird has straight lined it, you've tracked her and got infront of her but she refuses to come down and keeps going. The one saker I know of that did this was tracked all the way to the channel and she just kept going! :lol:
