I was told about a few ridge landings like that during the Vietnam
Conflict.. UH-1s sitting with one skid on the crest of a ridge line and the other hanging in space.. while the platoon bailed or boarded.. always adjusting the balance to the changing weight and CG load. BT "John Harlow" wrote in message ... http://www.thecia.net/users/stewarte...ooklanding.jpg
