Sandstorms

I have studied the nature and formation of sandstorms, but it is better to hear from people that have experienced them. So I ask other ppruners for some tips with dealing with them. Bear in mind our operation is low level helicopter work and far away from airports etc. We also do not have very up to date weather reports in our location. If we get stuck we land and sit it out, but being battered in a 2000kg machine with 60km/hr sand is not much fun.
