Reading Bru's latest reminds me of several interesting rides I have had. I would bet we could make this into an interesting thread. Has anyone out there been snatched up by a Sky Hook, aka Fulton Recovery System? I always wanted to but was never chosen. My ream set up a few extractions but "VIPs" seemed to get the ride.
Once we extracted a downed chopper pilot by hooking his seat up to the ropes. He donated the seat to us and you may spot it omongst the "patio furniture" in some of my web site pictures.
