  1. In Russia, any landing that you can drag your mangled legs from is a good landing.

  2. Looks like a hard landing! That won’t fly again, and the crew are going to need good chiropractors. Somehow, I doubt that’s something the Russian military will provide.

  3. So who took the picture? That logo? It looks Russian, so possible that the crash was in a Russian controlled. Which is too bad as a flight crew are good POW’s for Ukraine to take.

  4. Tried being the operative word! Pootin’s invasion has been catastrophic for Russia’s helicopter fleet.

  5. I’d say it was a successful, if hard, landing.

    Might well be a write off, but the crew will (unfortunately) live to fight another day.

  6. This is about as hard a landing as there could be without calling it a crash. The only real difference is no fire.

  7. It landed. At worst, knowing the MI-8 they might have fucked up legs but no fatalities. The fact that it didn’t tip over, indicates engine power was down. Good landing.

  8. Be funny if they landed without a fireball because they never fuelled it in the first place

  9. I’d honestly take that rather than having the rear tail rotor shot off by a MANPADS

  10. Putin informed the Russian people today that yesterday’s ground indentation mission was a success.
