95 % of stats are made up on the spot or something like that including that one

the single twin rules are something for the CAA/IAA's to come up with and those of us doing public transport simply have to follow them wether we think they are right or not. This guy was clearly flying private in his heli so if he wants to put the heli into a tight spot thats up to him, I fly MD500's and they are great and built tough the only thing that I think might need's looking at is wether or not he put the people on the ground at any risk?

I think landing in a carpark on a roof is fab it's what your ment to do with a helicopter along with all the other things you can't with a plane, but as the pilot or crew you know the risk's the poor sods on the ground don't but if their sorted then crack on
