Checkboard

You and I know that the load on a sling load is roughly constant where the load on the cable from a water skier is variable at best just as it is behind a boat. This alone would make the control of the chopper variable. I also don’t see a water skier under a sling load 100% of the time. Also last time I looked a sling endorsement doesn’t authorise a pilot to tow a water skier. There is a reason for this. Because it’s reckless.
