So me and my brother were flying our Helicopter to a safe location, AN island off the shore, And we ran into a problem. It was dark. We could not for the life of us make out any nearby trees so we had to circle the area a few times before painstakingly making a landing. My question is, Does ejecting from a Heli into water work? Will it kill you? Or will you drop safely? If so we may be able to drop the passenger and have them Light up the LZ with a Flare and therefore land more safely. But I wanted to see what the Community knows about this before actually trying this ourselves.
