Future special flight concept.
This is an outline of something I will be doing so you can advance prepare yourself for when it does happen.
Basically it will be a Helicopter event that even non Heli pilots will be able to take part in, and even be vital to the whole thing.
Chopper type and requirements:-
The pilots will need to master a chopper with a functioning MP Winch man and Multiplayer Crew/passenger function ( so quite a wide choice )
For the Non Helicopter pilots amongst us, your role will be a functioning crewman for the Pilot. Aiding them finding and completing the mission tasks such as accurately guiding the pilots to place the winch man on a target ( and taking and later publishing screen shots as proof ). In SAR and large helicopters you will often see a guy, or girl, hanging out one of the doors. They they checking the LZ or Guiding the helicopter onto target ( so you need to communicate direction and distance to the pilot etc ).
This will involve you all pairing off to form a crew and working together. Once I have designed the mission it will be posted well in advance to allow the crews to form.
Watch this space.

Sounds like a lot of fun! count me in
Hope this is on FGTV, Pure epic!
C'mon Actor - we'll need all the pilots and winch-peoples we can get!
Not much of a pilot anymore, might make a decent crewman though?
Training sessions in order for this?
Anyone want to take on a nutter for a winchman?
