Just my 2 cents worth

I mostly agree with all the comments, but my preference is for a little more pace when getting in or out, it is all personal preference. It just doesn't feel nice when people hop on the skid too slow, feels a little like you have a skid hooked on something to me.
If you are operating on a steep face or in a tight place, you don't want them taking to much time, they are either in or out, not mucking around out on the skid.
The helicopter won't be all over the place, if you are onto it!
Practice on the flat in the open first, and you will have no problem!

As I say, just my preference, just have a go!
