Air, diving. A trained peregrine named Frightful was reported at 242 mph (389 km/h) in a staged high-altitude dive. A recording altimeter measured the fall over time. Published camera measurements of another peregrine diving beside a dam reached 50 mph (81 km/h), illustrating how much the setup matters.
