if you have a bean feild next to where you fly at that will also teach him how to land. i used one next to my house when i would fly by myself, i would set up just like i would if i was going to land normally and the beans would just catch the landing gear and plane would go into the beans. wont hurt the plane one bit. but when they start drying out, landing in them then is a bad idea. trust me i'm speaking from experience. you will get lots of monokoting experience.
