You will find that there is an even more obvious translation of the Italian "Falco" ...... just stick an "n" on the end and you are done.

What - Marcus Didius?
Not Biggus Dickus?
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I have a pair of Falco boots, and they're excellent. Even excellent-er is that I got them for £30 off eBlag...
