Like imagine being stuck on a cliff with like a broken leg, you'll likely just try and wait it out if you know it's going to cost several thousands to tens of thousands of dollars, and ultimately end up calling only when conditions are so bad you get desperate and decide that you'd rather have a huge bill than be dead.

    In fact I think Chinooks, along with the Sea Knights (a similar helicopter of the Marine Corps) are the only ones that can do this, bcoz they don't have vertical tail rotor at their back, only horizontal rotor which make it possible. Imagine a helicopter like Black Hawk, that has a vertical tail rotor, it won't be able to do it in such an angle.

    With a Chinook helicopter, it's an amazing rescue and more by the back. The pilot helicopter was skilled. The advantage with Chinook helicopter the blades are high. The risk is less to touch the slope. But by the back, it remains a difficult landing.

    @@davecrupel2817 You are misinformed and incorrect: The normal operational ceiling of the Chinook (especially when practically empty, with just a few people on board) is 20k feet. Furthermore, 95% of helicopters are not the Chinook. It was designed for ops like this. How do you think the US military ferried cargo and troops to 15k-20k+ foot mountaintops in Afghanistan for ~15 years? Someone landed a Eurocopter AS350 Squirrel at the top of Mt. Everest all the way back in 2005 - not cutting edge technology in 2024, to be sure. You may be confusing the 10k foot FAA altitude limit, for flights without supplemental oxygen, for operational ceiling, as almost all helicopters (more than 95%) are capable of flight above 10k feet.
