This was a landing. It was inspired by the task set forth by kdryan in his post of "Bridge too easy, try this..."
I was in the area anyway and as you can see by the lat and long, its not all that far away from his location. this one has considerably less of a plateau on the top and may need a re-think of how to land up there.....his question was " How large can you get on the top ? "....I think this answers it.......first I show the plane on the top, then the approach to show how small the top really is.....then a few different angles to show the small, Heli-Port size, on which to deposit a Jumbo......can be done ! 8) 8)

Once you get the nose wheel over the edge, gravity and those four powerful engines get the main gear over a little bush like that quickly and you accelerate V fast to flight speed down the side of that slope.....flew in Air America style, and flew out the same way !
