US-glider guiders only: Article in last Soaring
Ive probably had half a dozen very pleasant dealings with local law enforcement during off airport landings. One was after I landed on a road in Iowa. He stayed with me till crew arrived. Another state trooper I'm Iowa stopped by to make sure everything was OK but declined the invitation to return later and help derig the Lark. Another sheriff's deputy in western Kansas was critical in the retrieve. He knew the lady in the house who wouldn't answer the door for me and used her tractor to pull the cirrus out of the soft field.
