Wednesday's flight looks like he was able to increase altitude as he burned off fuel. Thursday's flight looks like he flew it down a bumpy country road in the sky. Either that or there was a lot of oscillation.

That phrase pretty much describes the whole Raptor program.

Not a bad place for a forced landing. All the perfectly straight country roads a guy could wish for.

I hope he's alright.
If he landed in a corn field, with the temps from his turbo/engine-> :popcorn: ?

I'm fine. The aircraft is down in a corn field. We're working on the logistics of getting it out and on a truck. The redrive had some kind of problem that I had not experienced before. Need more investigation to find out why but in the grand scheme we weren't planning on using that design going forward anyway. A bit of a set back but you know me well enough by now to know that I'll keep pushing on with the program.

It's an unconfirmed, second hand report, but it sure sounds like Peter, so take it FWIW.

At this time of year, that could be very bad.

No road or clearing available?

He posted in on Youtube, so I would call it confirmed.

Apparently not necessary. To answer the question though; yes, there was a road right next to the field that he landed in. He crossed over it on the way to the field.

It seems fitting for it to be disassembled and trucked the rest of the way to wherever it's going. I still can't imagine what use anyone has for the airframe.
