Takeoff site that doesn't need a long runway (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heliport

(Other definitions for heliport that I've seen before include "Transport station" , "Landing-place" , "Rotary-winged landing place" , "where choppers may rest" , "Landing place for small aircraft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
