Hi Crab

Sounds like a bit of flipping up and down of goggles. Forgive the question but why wouldn't the HP just remain goggled up for a winch off a boat?

Happy with the restricted peripheral vision and depth perception issues but if you also used white light wouldn't that help? Also, if an engine failure (or whatever) did occur in that particular situation the HP is surely in a better position to flyaway in a timely fashion without the need for a handover in a potentially high workload situation?

A question from the uneducated.

Cheers

Turkey
