Fishing in Kamchatka is in full swing, and every day is important.

📽 This time the task of the Kamchatka Aviation Enterprise crew was to replace part of the workers on the fishing vessel «Kapitan Oleynik». The aircraft of the Kamchatka air enterprise took off towards Listvinnichnaya Bay on the eastern coast of the peninsula.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the helicopter cannot land on the ship. Passenger disembarkation and embarkation occur in flight. The Mil Mi-8 must remain suspended above the deck, rescuers lower and raise people with a winch. To successfully perform this operation, not only experience and skill of the crew are required, but also coordinated work of all participants in the process.

The video features the aircraft commander Dmitrij Krivonosov, the second pilot Dmitrij Baklakov, the onboard mechanic of the Mi-8 helicopter Dmitrij Pakholkov, rescuers Anatolij Balykov and Vladimir Glinskij.
