I saw this video on youtube.com of a guy flying BR from his car. Just thought some may be interested of seeing portable kit successfully flown from a car. Looks like he doesn't fly anymore than 3 birds though but it does work for him.
Yea I saw somthing on this in the documentary "share the blue sky".It had a segment on guys that flew birds from a portable loft, I think it was called "floug,rolling' or somthing to that effect. The birds were judged on how well they obeyed the trainer, and returning to the portable loft after liberation... it was prettie cool...

I went to Kansas year or so ago and saw a flier do the same thing. He has a set of box style perches with a piano hinge hinging them together. He flies around 12 birds, six box perches to a side three on top of each other. Then uses rabbit caged wire to form a frame that is attached to boxed perches for the birds to trap back into. The birds are fed and watered before they go back on the perches and 1/2 inch hole is drilled into each box perch for light and air. The cage/rabbit wire is taken down and the boxed perches are closed up for transport. It looks like a wooden suit case. There was a article sometime back in the NBRC with a detail on how to build one etc.
Yep turky buzzard I seen that also.. the suit case deal I also saw a picture of a loft that was on kinda, like a ice cream cart or somthing it had some really big old school bike wheel's on it...
