It was also see the landing area and check you weren’t hooked on a branch on departure most bush guys can hover just looking in mirror.

RAF Chinook front-seaters in the a/c up to Mk2 (last type I operated) had mirrors that let them look back into the cabin. Good for situational awareness when the 2 rear-crew (the real workers..) were genuinely too busy to talk.

Both the hook and load on a short line. We could also see the tail.

What is the rubber pad, on the down turned part of the mounting bracket, for?

Ok, interesting. Not sure of the shape of the door where it contacts, but it looks like it would touch the mirror first.
