There is an interesting series of photos in one of the 78 Sqn RAF historical albums concerning a Wessex at Sharjah, I think, which somehow clouted its starboard mainwheel before landing. The upper strut failed and the wheel assembly rotated around the lower strut, putting the starboard mainwheel somewhere level with halfway up the fuselage - not ideal in a Wessex.
As the photos clearly showed, the Wessex was refuelled (more than once, I think) in the hover while those on the ground created a suitable pile of sandbags etc and, in addition, a hover pilot change was also carried out (dual controls, remember) to give the original pilot a bit of a breather. Once the pile of sandbags etc was ready, being just the right height for the Wessex fuselage at rest, it was safely landed with the starboard side of the aircraft supported by the sandbags and the starboard wheel still in a fairly unconventional position.
Given the layout of the Wessex it would have been impossible to land any other way without the helicopter falling on its side and some very expensive noises ensuing...
