I would try, but there are two issues-
1. They won't let me borrow the helo.
2. That'd be too many dudes in my boat.
Cool video, thank for posting. Lots of brass in that video, and I'm not talking about fittings or the variety that goes on a collar.

You're right. Corrosion prevention & maintenance is a huge deal with military helicopters as we fly low over saltwater all the time. you start dunking the helo in saltwater and you're significantly reducing the lifespan and increasing costs dramatically. Way too many things wrong here for what seems like a useless purpose...

That's extremely impressive, but I can't see how that's an effective extraction method? A helicopter essentislly floating in the water waiting for a rib to come to it seems like 2 sitting Ducks to me.
