Possibly.
The runway is needed as most twin engine helicopters can fly on one engine but not hover on one engine. They have the same/similar V1 & V2 requirements as multi engine aeroplanes.
I wish.
The Merlin, the Lear Jet and the Cessna Citation flew into West Sale. The 1500ft runway at Longford was not nearly long enough for any of them. We have had RAAF Winjeels and CT4s into there at times though.
The Citation was used for quite a few years after the move to Melbourne.
