Ask that chap who landed on the road near Wellesbourne - last week, was it?

Answer to the question: we usually land in fields. However, if in Texas, or Florida, land on the road! Reason? Texas fields are, in West Texas, full of rocks and cacti, in East Texas, likely to be a swamp. In Florida, either orange groves, shopping centres, or the Everglades - swamped again!

But in the UK, plenty of suitable fields....depends on the glide ratio, of course.
