Sounds interesting. I wonder if it would work for Landies? Which Landy would fly the best - maybe the Freelander because its light?

Probably best would be a lightweight with a turbine?

However it would have the aerodynamics of a brick shi.. Um, er, that would be the aerodynamics of a Landrover, otherwise I'm in the outhouse over a swear filter dodge.

They were made to be lobbed out of helicopters, after all. :D

With or without a parachute ? - reliability would be about the same..... :wasntme:

Some of the wrecked auction lots coming out of Grey's make me think sans-chute was standard practice. :s
