You guys need to practice your landings some, its called a landing not a smack downLooking good VJ ! Hey did anybody watch the Discovery channel on Sun night where they flew a 727 into the ground using an RC radio. I think they must have been using a JR or Spectrum radioIt was pretty cool, if you didn't see it they wanted to get real crash data without having the plane blow up on impact but just break up so they could recover all the data equipment. Boy did that landing gear go flying! One thing for sure there was no place sitting on the plane that was safer than others, it's all a matter of chance.

Survival location had a big differential as I remember the show. 4G's in the back seats and 18 in the front? Big difference. Chip Shanle is my co-pilot! Super guy, does lot's of neat stuff and tells my F-4 stories all day.
