I thought they landed at full throttle in case this were to happen. If the cable was to break (which I have never heard of) or they missed all of them, they would have enough power to make a second try. Glad the pilot is safe.

ping... even if it's not from The Big Stick, maybe some of the folks involved might
be friends of your son-in-law...
(just based on my civilian guess that it's a relatively small fraternity of these pilots...)
