Interesting idea. Is the helicopter equipped with ejection seats too?
For there sake, hope all goes well. This ain't like just going out to do some fishing!

Looks pretty simple to me.

"Pretty confident" isn't good enough for me no way in hell would I be getting on that helicopter
is this cheaper in the long run, than the rocket landing its self?

Too right, some of the pic's from the Vietnam era are blow outs, backing them up onto mountain tops with guys unloading from the ground & it hadn't touched down just hovered, civilians never see what these military aircraft are really capable of doing with no eyeballs on them.
Not the pic I was after, but.
