Lisnaskea "The biscuit tin" at night!
Ah, yes! "Liznasty", used to worry me too, but in my time in the Province they wouldn't let us land inside. Many the time I sat in that damned field outside, expecting a drive by shooting as it was the perfect ambush point. After sitting there rotors running for nearly twenty minutes on one occasion while the user unit basically farted about trying to sort the internal load out, we told tasking that there really should be no more internal loads at that location, only USLs, so the a/c could get the hell in and out in a reasonable time!
Ask "Nivs" about his night single engine run on landing on a supposedly "clear area".... no-one knew (until they began the run-on) that the farmer had cut the hay that day and the place was littered with 1 tonne bales
An exciting few moments but he dodged them all, Well done, mate!
