We will se, how this develops
The idea of "bucketing" was invented in British Columbia, Canada in 1964 by Okanagan Helicopters using a Bell 47G3B1 and 45 gallon fuel drum with a trap door on the bottom.

I have bucketed with a 204, 205, 206, 212, Hughes 500, SK55T, SK58 Piston & T and SK61.

This ain't how ya do it.🙄
