Training Hoist Operation

The photo above was taken by Phil during a training exercise. The red and yellow item hanging beside the door is a Forest Penetrator. It's shape allowed it to be lowered through tree branches with little or no problem. The yellow items are fold down seats. The sack looking thing on the ground is a dummy that will be attached to the seat and hoisted into the helicopter.
