hey shortman, not sure where you are getting your info but after a few seconds in a wingsuit you are indeed flying, albeit only at a glide ratio of give or take 3:1, so check your BAK books again because i can assure you that it isnt hard to stall a suit if you are flying too flat/slow or you have bad body position. for a more 'real life' example, ask Dwain Weston about stalling suits if you bump into him.
as far as the wonderful notion of just gliding along a slope and touching down gently (yes we've all dreamed!), you would still be touching down at 250km/h or so on your stomach, head first, with 1mm of nylon for protection. no thanks! :)
