What is the capital of Assyria?

What is the average wing tip velocity of a sparrow? I got this one M'aiq. First off, the question you're referencing is actually "What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow". Wing tips don't have a velocity. But they do have an estimated beats per second, which on average is between 14-18. Now the average airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow, assuming we're talking about a European swallow, is roughly 11 meters/second or 24 mph. Assuming the European swallow were to travel from England to Assyria, stopping to sleep and eat regularly, it would take them around 9 days to arrive.
