Buddy not on reddit sent me this... He misses the good ol'days 😉

The Aerocopter AK1-3 (often referred to as the "Sanka") is specifically designed to use a reliable, liquid-cooled 156 hp Subaru EJ-25 automotive engine. The Ukranian helicopter is powered by a Subaru-derived automotive piston engine and operates on regular automobile gasoline (minimum RON 95). This unusual combination blends aeronautical engineering with the practicality and accessibility of automotive technology. Despite its lightweight empty mass of approximately 380 kg, the helicopter is capable of reaching speeds close to 180 km/h and offers an endurance of roughly 2.6 to 3.5 hours, depending on configuration and fuel load: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerokopter_AK1-3_Sanka

Don't know anything about helicopters it was being towed by a civilian. Definitely not something you see everyday!
