For kite or balloon supported antennas one should always make doubly
sure there are no high voltage power liner anywhere near where the
antenna, in falling, might come into contact with such. Many a ham (and
CBer, too) has been killed by things like antennas that come into
contact with power lines. Yeah, I know, "It can't happen to me."
Just be sure, rather than sorry.
