Hmmm.... it's an interesting question. The only thing I can think of with flags is that it would not be allowed to fly a yacht ensign and it may...
If it's just a touch down and drop off pad, you could make one fit, but if the helo is going to stay with you, forget about it. Keeping a helo on...
Ahhhh, gotcha, you can't, but you don't have to either. That's would just be a design Faux Paux. "Glaring design faults" are ones that have the...
:confused: :confused: :confused: I don't understand your comment, although it doesn't apply anyway since I have nowhere to put anything on this...
