Coast Guard Helicopters Will Land on Water. This might have been a crash, but wasn't. A Coast Guard helicopter is deliberately landed in the sea, where no land plane should be, to test the newly developed Emergency Flotation Gear. The helicopters wheels used for landing on solid ground are surrounded by large rubber floats which the pilot inflates at will. They support the entire weight of the plane.
