Default Helping with land out blues............

The dairymen in Vermont periodically spread their manure piles on hayfields to get rid of it. The smell at 3000 AGL indicates a strong thermal close at hand.

Default Helping with land out blues............

During on of my parachute training jumps, as I approached landing and
began my flare, I was faced with a cactus and a cow pie. Luckily I was
able to split the difference (by sheer luck).
