Well, W6RMK's reply makes me a believer:
This is normal operating practice.. they've been doing it for decades... I
*am* impressed at the skill of the helo driver. Takes a steady hand to hold
the helo like that and you can bet they don't do it on a windy day.
But I am absolutely flabbergasted. I haven't felt so stunned since I stood up
sharply inside a steel doorframe that was six inches shorter than I am. (Just
to connect it with ham radio, I was on my way to the club station where I used
to work.)
