Searched and didn't see anything about this.

Pretty interesting interview and video of the pilots riding on the wing of the helicopter.

Story Highlights
-2 downed U.S. pilots, 2 rescuers squeeze onto two-seater helicopter
-Two ride in seats, two cling to outside of chopper
-Kiowa helicopter was downed by enemy machine-gun fire, military says
-The 2 Kiowa pilots were slightly injured in the Monday incident

I apologize if this was posted in the wrong forum.

Heard about this earlier, glad to hear the pilots were rescued.

I seem to remember the Israelis doing something like this awhile ago, only flying a Cobra for the rescue.

Good on the crew of the Apache, for thinking and acting quick.
