Well Martin, you and I both know that whenever you land out in the UK there
will shortly be police car and a crowd of gawpers asking where the 'crash'
is!
A member of a club about 100 miles north of me (Northeast U.S.)had a
"firm" off field landing - no damage. He had a bad back and after he got
out of the glider he laid down on the ground to stretch it out a little.
The next thing he knew, there was a fireman on top of him, pounding on
his chest trying to "restart" his heart. While protesting vigorously,
the police arrived and decided that the fireman needed help. The pilot
found the incident a bit amusing..... some months after the event.
