My original formatting did not make it to the WWW archives, and the version
there is hard to parse.  So, I'm trying again in case anybody wants to
figure out what I was saying.

Well, W6RMK's reply makes me a believer:

"This is normal operating practice.. they've been doing it for decades...  I
*am* impressed at the skill of the helo driver.  Takes a steady hand to hold
the helo like that and you can bet they don't do it on a windy day."

But I am absolutely flabbergasted.  I haven't felt so stunned since I stood
up sharply inside a steel doorframe that was six inches shorter than I am.
(Just to connect it with ham radio, I was on my way to the club station
where I used to work.)
