You’re right, I got a bit ahead of myself. Allow me to clarify. In general, the wind in Russia moves from east to west, which is a consideration in both air travel and windmill construction. However, helicopters are among the least impacted aircraft due to their free-form movement and large, stable propellers. Takeoff and landing can both occur within a relatively small area even in unfavorable conditions. I hope that answers any lingering questions.

No. Unfortunately, I’m all out of Chianti.

I was more referring to this clip, but I also appreciate a little Silence of the Lambs.

As a fan of non sequiturs, I'm a bit surprised to have never seen this. Thank you for the link!
