Thanks for that clip and explanation G-Man. Guess that you just stepped out in a gentlemanly manner after landing.

Yep, funny thing though one year... had a new kid on the crew, had never flown in a helicopter, he took off in one 9 times before landing in one---all the other times he rappelled out. He is now a District Attorney in Utah.

It is amazing the number of parachutists who have never landed in an aircraft. The very few times I had to land with them on board they were scared stiff.
