A rarely seen perspective: an amazing 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. You have just got to LOVE the skill of our military. I think Marine Chopper Pilots and few Navy Pilots would attempt this. It’s too easy to lose lift and ditch the whole chopper.
