My boss wants me to fly an R44 to a private event to display it/try to get it leased. The LZ is owned by a rich guy associated with donations or whatever and it is on a small boat/ship. The boat itself is way offshore like 100nm.  They said they Don't want the platform scratched by the skids. They plan to lift the R44 and hose clamp 2x4 planks to the bottom of the skids. They said this way it won't scratch the platform surface. 

It's just one landing but it seems odd. There's no ground resonance so that's good but still an odd landing. I need to build time So it's prob worth it. Had anyone done something like this? Tips?
