  barrier by a wide margin but with a dangerously low rpm and no power reserve. Always make the landing to a specific point and not to some general area. This point should be located well forward, away from the approach ... area. The more confined the area is, the more essential it is that the helicopter land precisely at a definite point. Keep this point in sight during the entire final approach. When flying a helicopter near obstacles, always consider…
