Helicopter landing

Can helicopters land on any place and refuel/rearm or do I need to make airfield/landing pad for it?

What landing pad to use in editor?

Landing Zone sound like one, but it have 25 open parking and 6 pad for large aircrafts. If I want to make small size landing pad for choppers should I use Marker (Drop Zone) instead?

I made some tests. It seems after adding Runway Access Point (Small) you can land helicopters no need for runway.

Now another question about making "ferry platoon" with helicopter. I made troop cargo. I added platoon to starting location. This platoon needs to be transported to destination landing spot. I can make event and teleport unit to final location. The problem is that unit stays in starting location until teleport. Can I add totally new unit with event editor so it simulate arriving unit which is in chopper? Or is it possible to mount troops to transporter?
