[tlhIngan Hol] Why don't they land on the heads of people ?

[Steven Boozer]

AFAIK we have only one example (which doesn’t really help):

  SaqtaHvIS toQDuj wa'vatlh loS vI' jav chorgh 'uj 'ab 'oH
  Landing Formation Height: 36.46 M. (KBoP)

There’s also a note in HolQeD that you use {Saq} if a bird alights on the ground, {tlhot} if it lands on the water (cf. HQ 10.4:4).

The verb means "to land" or "to set down on the land" not "to land on", so it's most likely the first one:

which of the two is correct for "I land at/on the street" ?
    {tawDaq jISaq} or {tawDaq vISaq} ?
