Well, I did say the pilot seat needs to be over the TD/PM...I didn't say that the undercarriage had to be in the yellow. With the pilot seat positioned over the TD/PM, wherever the undercarriage happens to end up will be in the certified load bearing area of the helideck, by design. But as VF mentioned, it was designed and built in excess of that criteria. So hang the tail over if you wish, avoiding any slippery bananas skins left by errant monkeys otherwise the whole shooting match might end up over the side.
