After sitting on top of the world for 2 minutes, Delsalle lifted off and returned to the Tenzing-Hillary Airport at Lukla, Nepal. This accomplishment had required extensive testing on site, especially because of the low atmospheric pressure available for the helicopter rotors, winds over at these altitudes, and oxygen depletion for both Delsalle and his helicopter's engine.
