Frame Report

Goal is any expression that tells where the Vehicle ends up, or would end up, as a result of the motion.

They set planes down on the strip before midnight.

The Operator maneuvers the vehicle onto land.

A skilled pilot|ope would never set a plane down in weather like this.

The Vehicle ends up stationary on land.

She landed the plane|veh on an unoccupied airstrip.

A Manner expression describes a property of landing which is not directly related to the trajectory of motion. Descriptions of speed, steadiness, grace, means of motion, and other things count as Manner expressions.

The pilot carefully put down the plane and let the police approach.

This FE identifies the Means by which a Operator lands a Vehicle.

Path is any description of a trajectory of motion which is neither a Source nor a Goal. In this frame, Path expressions almost always have a via-sense.

He wasn't willing to land the plane through lightning and rain.

This FE identifies the Place where the landing occurs.

This FE identifies the purpose for which the Operator lands the Vehicle at the Goal.

Source is any expression which implies a definite starting-point of motion. While Source expressions are possible in this frame, they are relatively infrequent.

We tried to land the helicopter from the east|src to avoid detection.

This FE identifies the Time when the Operator lands teh Vehicle.

Circumstances describe the state of the world (at a particular time and place) which is specifically independent of the landing event itself and any of its participants.

Cotheme is a second moving object, expressed as a direct object or an oblique.

Jones landed the with three planes which were flying in close formation.

This frame element selects some gradable attribute and modifies the expected value for it.

The Depictive is a phrase which describes the state of the Operator or Vehicle upon arrival.

We were forced to land the small passender plane unaware of the conditions on the ground.

This FE marks the state of affairs reported by the landing event as understood to play a role in the state of affairs of Event_description

How often the Operator lands the Vehicle at the Goal.

The New_situation are the state of the Goal when the Vehicle arrives.

I dream of landing a troop carrier|veh to a standing ovation.

The time period within which the landing event repeats multiple times.

This FE presents the current frame as an integral part of a larger conceptualization expressed by another frame. The frame expressed by the target typically corresponds to a Means action.
