Hawks swoop down at approx. 140mph according to our local birds of prey person.
a peregrine falcon is the fastes animal on the planet recorded by nat geo in stoop doing 250mph, but in level flight they can only manage 40mph, compared to swifts at 70mph.

in 2007 a peregrine was clocked at 242mph but since then one has been clocked at 250mph but cant find it.

good point about bif from neil, and also a good thing to remember keep your panning smooth, and as said if you can use a bean bag to steady you go for it, also a monopod does come in handy,
me and my husband had a go at swifts recently and thats one fast bird i believe the fastest in level flight,

you should not be shooting under 1/600th sec, at 400mm as thats rule of thumb but you can go slight slower than that with the sr 250th sec but depands how you handle the lens and keep your breathing steady, i have had sharp shots with a 500mm lens on a k20 at 80/th sec.
also if light permites stop the lens down to around f8.
and keep to using tav mode and auto iso ramb up to 1600 if you have to, a sharp noisey shot is better than a blury shot.
