It’s a plane but it lands like a helicopter
An Alaskan bush pilot showed off some impressive skills by making a helicopter-like landing in the middle of a river.
Bob Breeden posted a video showing a very short landing of a Glacier Cub, a two-seat, single-engine monoplane.

There are a couple of companies that make similar aircraft. Zenith Aircraft is one of them and you get that performance with full length leading edge slats and full length flaperons. I have a 701 and it stalls out at 22 knots at full flaps. With a 25 knot breeze on the nose you can take off in about 10 meters.
But can someone tell me what this has to do with mining and the mining industry?
