Leo Mandlsperger was just 10 years old when he began working with falcons and over the ensuing years garnered international recognition. Wherever you chance on Leo your eyes automatically start scanning the sky in the hope to witness the awe inspiring displays of his magnificent birds. His falcons are valued throughout the world, his clients especially appreciate that the 69 year old trains his falcons by himself; they are bred, raised and trained solely by Leo. In urban environments they are deployed in crow management, in rougher rural territory they are the ultimate hunter and of course further afield Leo’s falcons are at home in the United Arab Emirates where falcons have a deep seated cultural importance. That said it can be of no wonder that he chooses his form of transport very carefully, he’s opted for the off road version of the Ford Ranger that combines a perfect mix of off road capability and highway comfort. His breeding facilities are off the beaten track, his training grounds are more often than not off road and on top that there are the long distance highway drives. For Leo his vehicle versatility is essential, it’s good thing that Leo and delta4x4 have been close friends for many years and now swears by the new A/T-tire AT#1 from Loder Tires, it claws its way regardless of however tricky the terrain just like his birds of prey. The Loder AT#1 is a German development that comes in sizes 33×12.5R18 and 305/60R18. It’s tested for sound, rolling resistance and grip in wet conditions and is approved for speeds up to 180kph and for 1320kg.
