    So many nice big fields to land on! Rolled the dice with that one, glad it worked out!

    Thanks for sharing. Very generous of you for others to learn from. Those wide angle lenses also make things seem closer than they may really be.

    Why didn't you just do a circle or two over one of those nice large fields? You had plenty of time and height to set yourself up for a proper landing in the center of a big field with a couple of turns. You didn't really make any turns at all. Honestly, dealing with landing in private property that may have a cow in it and having to climb out over a fence is much better than crashing in a tree, which you essentially did. You were just fortunate to keep flying out of the tree. Stay safe out there man! Maybe practice spot landings to build that confidence.

    Better to make a bad decision rather than no decision at all.
    Maybe go back to easier landing sites to get so practice.
    You were lucky this time.

    You passed on so many perfectly good landing opportunities. On a day with barely any sun so really no chances of a flight-saving thermal. I would have landed safely...

    • @kurkotava801
      @kurkotava801  Рік тому +1

      As I've written before, the target was a small field near the house (seen at the end of the footage), but I was surprised by the big fence and decided to land in a more dangerous place (plus I fear cows)) )... Yes, this was a mistake. I share this negative experience and hope nobody will repeat my mistakes. :)

      ​@@kurkotava801 Typical example of target fixation. Make sure you have a back-up plan. When the target seems less reachable, switch to your back-up landing location.

      You're right. It was a spontaneous (and stupid) decision - I was surprised by the fence at the planned landing place.

    • @renedekker9806
      @renedekker9806 Рік тому

      @@kurkotava801 You were already too low over the planned landing place to begin with, and should have switched to your back-up landing location much earlier. For a safe margin, you should be able to make two circles above the landing field before touching down. Two circles also allows you to assess the wind, which may be surprisingly different than you expect.
      But I appreciate putting it on internet, so others may learn from it as well.
