There are enough pilots with fire fighting experience who have been saying this for years:

Either you use a very short line, so the bambi cannot get into your tail rotor-or you use a long line.......
If there is one thing you should not use, its a line that stops exactly at the tail rotor, then you fly down the hill like a crazy cowboy.....


But again:

I think i am only getting too old for this.......too many times i had to say "I have been warning you"....
