Lt.-Col. Endre Daróczi, the Chief of Air Operations of the HDF 86th Szolnok Helicopter Base said to our inquiry that this manoeuvre requires increased preparation, and a more delicate and intricate take-off and landing technique from the air personnel. “Landing on a grassy field is used on the area of operation (AO), when the pilots have no opportunity to take their plane down on the traditional concrete airstrip" – explained the Lieutenant Colonel.
