"Smallish field"??? That field is probably larger than the entire airport the aircraft took off from. The crops would help slow it down too - like landing into a very forgiving net.

Wait for Harvest Sunday, rip out the interior and unload as much petrol as you dare and I bet you could easily fly that out of that field. (judging by the photos at least)
