    When you land 50 feet from your car for an easy drive home......That's a good emergency landing. He didn't just walk away. He drove away. Nice job!!

      I was thinking where did he take off from that would be a better place to land then I see the jeep 🤓 would be even better if he landed and came to a stop just before the tow bar. That would be a one off amazing experience caught on camera.😎👍

      These flying tea bags are at home in the sub-sub-sub-sub sonic speed range. That means you fly for 20 minutes and you are only 500m away from your starting position. So yeah, I guess you are right. 😂👍

    Instantly saw that there was plenty of flat land around to conduct a forced landing. It also looks cold so the nice dense air would’ve given you a lot of aerodynamic performance (glide distance) to find the best spot to set it down. This was barely an issue at all.

    Unexpectingly having no power at 1000ft takes some quick thinking, considering the fact that most deaths are caused by low turns.

    Landing hard with the wind at your back can mess up your day.
