align with the building, check for obstacles, bring her down in one piece, step and stand(!) on the brakes.

The difficult part is the same as on the airfield, hover and sink her slowly. ...and keep away from the edge of the roof! You'll loose the ground effect :D

Is there a "textbook" way to land on a rooftop ? I couldn't find any mention of this in the forums.

I mistundertood your question, landing on the Akula's rooftop and with gear up sounds wierd to me :music_whistling::lol:

Not really a textbook for it no.

But it can help to open the cockpit door and approach the roof flying sideways.

This way you have a much better overview of your landing area.

 

No idea how realistic it is, but it helps.

This summer I saw a rescue-chopper land on a very tight space on a small island in the Swedish western archipelago. Door open, pilots head sticking out.

There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.

I normally go in sideways, just easier to see things. I watched a doco on the Falklands war and noticed that the carrier borne helos would approach offset to the side to the carrier as it steamed into the wind. When they drew adjacent to their landing pad they would then come to a hover and crab in sideways and land. I guess a lot of that had to do with not wanting to fly over the deck with other helos there, but it looked like the vision would have been pretty good doing it that way.

I don't test for bugs, but when I do I do it in production.
