I wonder why he chose to do that rather than use the fitted winch? (Aircraft performance and/or turbulence, maybe?) On the face of it, that looks the more hazardous option.

Opération de #Secours du #PGHM de Chamonix (74). Nos pilotes d'hélicoptères de la #Gendarmerie aiment aussi avoir le nez dans la poudreuse. Une manœuvre de précision pour des images impressionnantes #sportsdhivers #prudence


The pilots love having the nose in the powder. I presume they mean the helicopter's nose in the powder snow. :)

Anything the Gendarmerie Nationale can do, the Guardia Civil can do better. :)
