    Talking about horizontal/chase speed, I seem to recall a video with a Gyrfalcon chasing a lure on a car, getting the fastest tail chase speed.

      Gyrfalcons are usually considered as one of, if not the fastest species in level flight, though some really fit Peregrines can challenge them (particularly the largest subspecies) in this respect

    Regarding wing position: I've seen images of a falcon stoop with the wings actually asymmetrically positioned, one shoulder further forward than the other, allowing the minimum frontal area, and achieving almost perfect teardrop shape.

      If so that seems to slightly unusual as falcons typically maintain a more symmetrical shape in this position unless these was taken at a slight angle or at the moment when the bird starts to descend, as they often orientate their wings at different angles during the maneuver.
