Singapore-based military aircraft photographer @alert5 just shared this cool clip
from Chinese TV of a Kamov Ka-28 barely escaping disaster as it attempts to
land on a Peoples' Liberation Army Navy Type 054A frigate. Thankfully the pilot managed to do a go
around and land safely. On the second landing attempted I was impressed by the 16 guys
(looked like four per wheel) racing out to secure the helicopter to deck.
Brilliant stuff!
