How ever did we land on mountain pinnacles or confined areas without them circles to aim at? Heck....no circles on runways either!

If you cannot figure your angle by looking at the entire deck....what in the heck is the circle going to do for you?

If you have a "standard" circle.....what is a standard helicopter?

Throw in a deck edge refuelling point....do you use the circle then?
