stunning video emailed to me from Brent Drake....

Attached is a rarely seen perspective: a video of a U.S.
Navy SEAL extraction was filmed from inside an MH-47 Chinook
helicopter.

The pilot has lowered the ramp, dipped the tail end into the
water to partially flood the compartment (a maneuver that
requires quite precise flying) and awaits the Navy SEALs to
board in their F470 Zodiac.

That was Way Cool!!! I guess that would fall under the category of something you can do in a helicopter (if you're an incredible pilot) but don't try it in a Gyro.
I think that would be a great stunt for a James Bond movie. Thanks for sharing that.
