AS350 vertical reference fire fighting

Ha ha....just pop the door yeah righty oh! Don't know about you but it's bad enough reaching back to close the door on a 350 on the pad, let alone doing it multiple times in flight with a longline. Accident waiting to happen if you ask me. It sure is no jet box door. Don't really see what the problem is using floor window. Most of our longline stuff apart from bucketing is precision stuff, a lot of it in a Canadian winter so door off not an option. Depth perception not an issue once used to the picture.
