Kish Island years ago….it rains briefly but heavily for ten minutes…terminal leaks like a sieve. Drainage on runways, taxiways and apron…slim to nil. Condition frantic declared.
WX now CAVU.
Tower “You can not land…the runways are flooded!”
Me: “You do realize that I’m flying a helicopter?”
Long, long pause.
Tower: “You are cleared to land..at your own discretion but ..we will not be responsible!”
It was pretty hairy but I managed to land safely…close call! LOL.
