Answer
- D Push forward, hold glide speed and land roughly straight ahead
Explanation
At low height there is usually not enough height for a turn back. The steep turn at low speed easily leads to a wing drop. You push forward immediately, hold the best glide speed and land within about 30° either side of the take-off direction.
