What's going on here?

3 Apaches taking off on a recon mission.

They are all on the same landing pad.

There is another Apache hovering over them waiting to land on the same pad.

Behind them, you can see 2-3 empty landing pads.

Who is in charge of traffic control?

I had the throttle on full power and when I tried to take off,

the warning system said:

"Main rotor transmission failure"

My co-pilot is screaming in my ears:

"We need to set her down, Sir!!"

The master alarm is blaring!
