  Dave,

  Good to hear neither bones nor plastic was bent.  Near amazing the none of the gear gave way as the drag on the gear from a plowed field would be a bit heavy and I'm sure lead to rapid deceleration.   Know that you are unlikely to ever stop in such a short distance again--hopefully.  I don't know how long the field was, but nice piloting, especially since you probably didn't have many hours in model.  

  Good luck in getting it all back together.  We're all pleased to hear such a good outcome from such a tenuous circumstance.

  Chuck
