In the beginning, watch the downwash knock over a trash can in the background and send papers flying as someone chases them. It's funny! Watch the pilot of this ATU land in a tight spot. Note the location of the pad upon landing in relation to the light pole. It is only two and a half parking spots away! That's nuts! This was a demonstration landing at the Fraternal Order of Police parking lot 5530 Beach Boulevard
in Jacksonville, Florida.

  • @Ant1fa5 its the effect camera fps and speed of blades!

    saludos desde argentina.

  • That was very tight. One little wind gust and they could have been in trouble.

  • that would be a good street cleaner =)

  • no this is fantastic, yes helicopter due have the advante of landing in tights spots but it's very dificult to do so. You have to think of everything that is going on, that hospitle, the light post, other cars. Even the slightest wind can make it that much more difficulte to land. My brother flies chinooks in the military and has told me all about helis and landing them. This was indeed a very very good landing.

  • An even tighter landing took place not far from me in September 2009.

    Look here:

  • notice the two light poles, thats very confined for even a helicopter to land in.

  • hehehe, you dont know what your talking about.

  • plus the fact that the pilot is also landing facing into wind. a necessity when landing in such a tight spot i would of thought.

  • NORMAL LANDING, NOTHING SPECIAL. If he landed an airplane in the lot, then THAT would be amazing. But choppers are designed to do just this, land in confined areas. YAWN...
