You realize this isn't Scrappy, right. Piper cubs can do this stuff all day. All the better that an experienced bush pilot was flying this day. If he hadn't stuck the landing he could have just hit the gas and would be airborne in .25/second. I know it looks impressive to most but very doable. He landed on a round spot so he could put is nose directly in the wind hence no cross wind. Trust me the hotel would not have authorized this move if there were more than an inkling of a possibility of failure.

As a fellow tailwheel pilot, this is an incredible spot-landing. Obviously, there is a strong and steady breeze. But that helipad would have strong turbulence past it. Staying above it and not dropping too low is imperative. Not having a normal landing picture due to the ground being so far away was probably pretty trippy. And the takeoff might have been the craziest thing.

I actually landed a Piper Cub in a full-motion simulator at the Medallion Foundation in Anchorage Alaska. I landed on an aircraft carrier like a helicopter would land. Straight down hover. I had to keep power on a little to not roll backwards off the carrier deck. I performed a 0 landing. Zero feet. I literally just floated right down on the deck. Carrier was moving into the wind, obviously. With wind, any landing is possible. Taking off is easy. Full flaps and full throttle lifts a Cub right off the ground into the wind. The simulator was fun. Some, including myself, at times got a little air sick in it. Where's the fun if you don't. I didn't puke. Those who did cleaned up their own mess. Seasoned pilots with hours of experience still get air sickness at times in the right conditions. It's not a sign of weakness. It's just normal. That's flight.
