Thanks for the attack and Happy New Year.

The original post had nothing to do with heli-skiing.
I stressed in my post that you need to have HOGE performance.
You don't have HOGE performance if your dropping off skiers at 10,ooo feet.

As for experience, I may not have as much experience as a lot of the other posters; I have 7,000. + on helicopters and in Canada we do get on average, 6 Months with snow.

Go and try your no-hover technique into a poorly lit heli-pad at night and let me know how it works out.
