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.)
