Hmmm - does it say how bad? Is it considered Controlled Flight into Terrain
(CFIT) or Controlled Mow into Things (CMIT)? Would it help if I filed a
ASRS after such an incident? It's not like it is intentional or anything.
Sure, I may let the grass get a tad high before mowing it, causing me to
mow under marginal visual mowing conditions, but there are always
extenuating circumstances.

My lifelong dream is to get one of those mowers that mows
automatically while I sit up on the porch in air conditioned comfort
with a Jack Daniels in one mitt and a remote control joystick for the
mower in the other. :-)

With a suitably modified GPS enabled autopilot (some tractors are
large farms actually have these) you could be spared the labor of
working the joystick. Once programmed it would fly (well, taxi) a
suitable pattern, upwind, crosswind, downwind, base, and upwind again
and mow down those blades that intrude into a bug's airspace.

I claim extra credit for aviation content in the above.
