Considering the trouble this person had trying to get airborne, landing the aircraft may prove difficult. Video after the break.

This is a very odd aircraft. This guy is trying to get swept up in the wind current, but having trouble. How do you land?

This rigid wing looks like a Swift (it's the next step after a hang glider), and the pilot is not having any problems what so ever. He is using the "high" wind speed to start and do some ridge soaring. If the wind was a bit less, he would have needed to run a bit 1st. Landing is also no problem, and this is how you do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADV66O9jQus Again. The pilot is not in any problems!
