Pete,


Since some of us are pretty "regulars" at off-field landings (Allez
aux vache...), I was thinking more of the legal aspect. *Say you land
somewhere other than an airport and a law inforcement guy shows up, or
a private property land owner, and they are frowning. *Might be good
to have a little ammo in the back pocket of "The Federal Government
not only approves of off-field landings, but encourages the training
of it as well..."


Add that ammo to the "Any port in a storm".


I did land once in hay field rented and cropped by a county sheriff
once. *He was not happy. *Not happy at all. Don't know if telling him
the Federal Government didn't mind would have made him smile. *But
it's better than nothing.

Don't EVER land in an asparagus field!

...and don't ask me how I know!
