Your aircraft may get trashed but you can always get another. I don't
care about the airplane. I care about *me*.

Not to mention how quickly corn will bring your aircraft to a stop.

high crops are going to stop you real fast; and if you don't have
a shoulder harness you are going to get hurt. I haven't tried corn,
but did try with wheat, and it is a lot softer, and I wasn't going
too fast either (glider landing), yet I was really glad to have a
five point harness...
