BBC 4 Flights Of Fancy


I enjoyed this social/archive document on the evolution and historical significance of the human aspects of pigeon racing and the birds. What we need now is a probing look at sophisticated/modern elitist racing, with a clinical accent on National/International and the exemplary personalities involved in the science/art and technology of racing at the top level. May i suggest a penetrating look at the infrastructure, organisation and function of the British International Championship Club, and its significance to the European and global pigeon sport? The essence of competitive pigeon racing is now light years ahead of the 70s with innovative changes in nutrition, psychological awareness, racing systems and technology. A great deal of original insights are manifested in my detailed books on my personal findings after 65 years as a pigeon lover. I hope you all consider racing at the top level with the BICC for the thrill of a lifetime in the Barcelona race.
