Makes sense.

Just because you can operate an aircraft (or do anything) doesn’t mean you always should. He probably thought others would think it was cool because he thought it was cool.

[broken_clock]

Lol, dust! The horrors!

Kris Kristofferson would have never met Johnny Cash if the Nannys were around back then.

I can sympathize. When I need a Dairy Queen soft serve vanilla with chocolate coating, I need a Dairy Queen soft serve vanilla with chocolate coating and nothing will stop me.

Hig traffic parking lot

It,looks virtually empty, seems like he picked the spot because it was big and empty

Not saying hes right but given hardly anything is around him and hes in the midle of an empty lot, its a good choice

He didnt just set down right next to the DQ buidling itself and try window service...

Harrd to tell, but it’s either an R-22 or R-44. I flew an R-22 twice, with an instructor, of course. Already had my fix’d wng lic. Helios are a different animal, entttirely. But in many places (here in the US), you can land them off-airport, so long as you’re such and such a distance from whatever — don’t remember what the FARs say exactly.

[Flick Lives]

Hey, it’s not like the guy hovered thru the drive through window.

[dragnet2]

When it landed, the helicopter blew up dust and debris through the area, which includes schools, an aquatic centre and more,"

But it's ok for 80,000 illegals in the LA area to fire up their leaf blowers, blowing street debris and who knows what into the atmosphere on a daily basis.

[LegendHasIt]

Well, given that they arrested a ‘covid quarrantined’ woman a month or so ago for having a package of cigarettes delivered to her motel room by a toy sized drone, I guess this makes sense.

"For a while, I didn't have a car... I had a helicopter... no place to park it, so I just tied it to a lamp post and left it running...[slow glance upward]"

I think it is kinda clever of him and I wish I had done it (and been able to do it).

Sometimes you just need ice cream cake, amirite?

[SakoL61R]

Can’t have no fun any more!
Back in the 80’s, we’d often “pit-stop” at the Beacon Drive-In in Spartanburg, SC for a bite. Owner had a heli-pad across the street that easily accommodated our Army H-60. Approved, no hassles, and never messed up anything with rotor wash.
Would definitely be court-martialed and stripped of our wings these days for a fraction of what we did back then.
...Limited only by airspeed and imagination......and, of course, chapter 5.
Good times!

As the old saying goes: If you’ve got it, flaunt it.

[DesertRhino]

God forbid someone land a tiny helicopter anywhere besides a runway at an airport. They act like a CH-53 landed at the drive up window.

[Billthedrill]

What flavor of ice cream? Dang it, these reporters never ask the right questions.

[Viking2002]

I like DQ as much as the next person, but not that much. As an aside, we used to have a great German restaurant back home for decades, and JFK loved the bee-sting cake there so much, at least once he actually had an order phoned in and a helo flew the 120 miles to the local airport to pick it up for him. Hand to God, it was that good. And I have a photocopy of the recipe from their old cookbook.
