typerated,
My favourite land out story was the Bicester Ka6 which landed out in Norfolk in the '70s.
At that time Bicester had two Ka6s and therefore two trailers. The crew hitched up one of the trailers and raced to Est Anglia to retrieve their pilot.
When they got to the field they rolled up to the glider and opened the trailer doors - the other Ka6 was inside the trailer.
'Twas one of the longest retrieves on record!
