We used these nearly every day in Northern ireland , it was a great site to see after a 12 hr foot patrol. Or nothing worse if bad weather came in at the end of a patrol and the flight home was canceled. Cmv extraction
In a drop zone we don't terminate the approach to hover , state go for the ground , secondly staying on ground for more then 2.5 minutes ,, real time enemy will not let you take off , poor timings and DZ Drills
Alright Mr armchair tactician. This was litterally the first time practising these drills which is why there is an instructor there... That's why everyone got up and back into the heli, which also obviously wouldn't make much sense if you were getting dropped off in a DZ.
Not sure what caused the confusion... This is a puma! That's what we all called it when I filmed the video and that's what you'll find if you Google "RAF Puma helicopter" and check what it looks like... 🤔😉
