Okay obviously a Helicopter does not need a runway to land, but have you ever heard of an inflight emergency? Lets say the Blackhawk we fly looses and engine and we no longer have hover cabability because we weight to much. We fly in and do a "ROLL ON LANDING". It is where we land like an airplane on our wheels. Other inflight emergenices require the same landing such as loss of tail rotor thrust and etc...
That is why the runway is so short and narrow. It is only built for "HELICOPTERS" in mind....

Country:  | I have seen once on the TV how they showed the way that landing is done Adler and it is great to see it and how they do it. If we have a wild fire on our mountain the Airforce send their Oryx helicopters to come and help the fire fight and I love to watch them fly around and they sometimes let us get on board and check stuff out. The Oryx is a Upgraded version of the Puma.

Country:  | Personally, I don't think Adler's duties from sitting around, or flying around doing sod all is going to change much. Hahah , just kiddin'
But that's all they were doing when I were there.

I will not work or crew on Chinooks when they do arrive which has not happened yet. They are just going to be another company in our unit.

Country: | Nope they will not. I am still going to be a NCO and a Blackhawk Crewchief.
Well I took the pictures of the post but unfortunaly I had a problem with my aircraft today (engine trouble) and we made a precautionary landing into a German Airport and that is where the aircraft is at right now. Well my camara is in my flight helmet bag which is in my aircraft which is at the airport. I will get my camara back tomorrow though and will post them either before the football game or after it.
