Seems incredibly dangerous. Have you seen how they drive in Russia? Much safer in the air if you ask me.

Well,
with plenty of other landingspots available the question could be, why block a fairly busy the road with cars (with one leaving the blocking position before the helicopter was airborne....) instead of using a farmroad or field?
But well, nothing happend and its russia.....
FB i think with the snow the priest would get wet messy feet and on the tarmac it is nicer.
Also it is a better surface to land on than the deep snowy field's unknown surface ?
(just don't forget the wires)
