      @@TruckTaxiMoveIt Funny you say that because when i used to fly a number of my instructors would opt for landing a field full of livestock (sheep were mostly discussed, as it was Shropshire) as opposed to a field full of bails of hay. The 'logic' was... at least the animals can move out of the way... Cows on the other hand might be a bit 'slow' to react?

      152 stalling speed is 80Km/h, and it takes 500’ of runway to land.
      That mean it is more likely that you will hit something hard in a dead-stick landing at 80km/h unless you find a stretch of empty flat ground that is longer than 500’.
      The paraglide can land below 20km/hr in very short distance. You are less likely to hit something hard.

      @@esphilee but you don't need the 500 ft to land. Especially if it's in a field, it goes really quick to get to a stop. If there are trees around you can absorb most of the impact with the wings, additionaly the wings don't just fold in like a parachute does If the wind hits at the wrong angle.
      We don't even have to talk about actual impact protection, in case of a crash (crash, not just emergency landing) an actual plane gives way more protection.

      This farmer shotgun scenario happened to the drummer of the 1970’s rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd (Sweet Home Alabama, Free Bird, etc.) When they had their famous plane crash that took the life of their lead singer as well as others in the band and crew, the band’s drummer, Artimus Pyle, survived the accident, but was badly injured. He barely had the strength but went to get help. A farmer saw this bloody “long haired hippie” climbing over a fence in his field and shot him with a shotgun. I met Artimus Pyle a few years ago. I’m a retired police detective and I took an overtime assignment to a work security gig at a concert that his new band was playing at. Afterwards, I escorted his bus back to a local hotel And when we got there he came off the bus and came over and thanked me for my service and helping with the concert. We sat outside and talked for over two hours and he spoke in great detail about the plane crash. He told me about getting shot and that he understood why the farmer shot him. It was because to the farmer it probably thought he looked like he was a zombie coming to attack him. He said he got shot in the shoulder and as he was spinning around from the shot, he was able to speak out “plane crash”. The farmer realized his mistake and that his brains were safe and called for help. It was an incredible story to hear. Especially 1 on 1. I got to ask any questions I wanted about the crash and the band. Admittedly I didn’t know much about the band at that time, but boy did I ever after our conversation. I think why we talked for so long, because he met someone that he could tell all these stories to that was hearing them for the first time. In my career I’ve been around countless celebrities, I’ve never had any bad experiences with any off them. But I never met a nicer or more open, and unfiltered man as Artimus Pyle.

    Well done. My father has a powered parachute. No bird strikes yet, but I with him once when he had to land in a fairly strong cross-wind. He straightened it out just a tad too early so we were pointing leftward when the turf tires hit the chipped stone. We immediately veered off the runway into a beanfield. We had soy bean in and on every part of the aircraft. They went everywhere. But just like you, he collapsed the chute quickly so we didn't get jerked around.

    Wow! Total professional, stays calm and in control. He knows his aerodynamics...watch toward the end of the video when he keeps raising and lowering the nose to keep his airspeed up so the wings doesn't stall and fail. Bravo!!!!

      I was thinking that these wings are pitch controlled by the motor which was off.
