In Vietnam I flew into towns named An Loc and Xuan Loc.

Did you park your helicopter in the helicopter parking lot?

(can't remember where I heard that line, from an Huey pilot)

Flying single ship, you normally park your aircraft near to whoever needs what you’re bringing or to pick up pax.

Parking lot might refer to staging ten or more Hueys for formation flight.

I did land my Huey in several seafood and restaurant parking lots along the S.C. coast. These had been surveyed & cleared by our safety officer as authorized landing sites. You could even bring coolers & buy shrimp but only for personal use.
