I have not seen SAR aircraft with a VR longline bubble window and door.
Would there not be some, and I repeat some, situations where Vertical Reference techniques would be very useful in hoist ops.
A hoist, in a way is, a “Retractable Longline”.
Over water, particularly moving water, VR can be difficult so traditional methods may still work best.
Does the military teach/utilize VR in sling ops?
