Hey, I'm the player who landed on the mountains slope.
I did that, because when designing the aircraft, I did not expect that the target location would be on top of a mountain and I did not want to fly all the way again with a new design.
In retrospect I would just slap a lot of parachutes on the plane to get it quickly to a full stop.
If you do it that way, don't forget to test that it works as intended!
The cargo container is pretty fragile and I had a few landings, where it just exploded inside the cargo bay, because the landing was too harsh.
Also keep in mind that in order to complete the mission, you must first enter the "sphere" around the location with your craft and ONLY THEN the cargo container can be released to the ground. I don't think it works the other way around.
Here's also the original thread in the steam forums, where I describe my approach a bit more detailed:
@Toinkove I'm your hero?

But thanks I guess 😄
