Stealthier

That was one option. But maybe the drop cap has enough stealth caps 
and anti grav that it makes a quiet 'hole-in-the-sky' landing with no 
detection. In which case it is just as good. But I think the drop cap 
would work well if you had PA. Meteors hitting the ocean (even if 
near shore) don't merit attention. Your PA SF guys then walk ashore 
under water.

Yep. Or Tractor Beam if you are hi-tech ish.

Or maybe you have some sort of impact foam or bladder that you can 
use to encase yourself for such High G pickups. Better odds than 
today of survival.

Or walk out. Only that doesn't work in space....
