It looks like there is a grim determination to get rid of it
which will reflect an even greater determination from everyone else to ensure that it stays

Don't know how long for though. Someone
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Bill saying something like:
A fairly common 'utility' in small aircraft.
I think these men have it sussed!!
In some respects I would be happier doing the second job, as long as I had a parachute on my back!! Equalising potential between chopper and line is perhaps the riskiest bit. I would also hope the chopper electronics were well tested in static/EMC environment!! I'd hate any "crashed" microcontrollers!!
I'm not sure you would even have time to pull the rip, let alone for it to open.

I think you might attach it to the power line!!
The chopper is in a faraday cage as well?
There is no such thing as a perfect faraday cage, I saw the chopper had quite a few apertures. It only needs a small proportion of 500kV to cause an issue. The resistance of ultra-thin aluminium-magnesium allow would also allow a fair potential difference across the aircraft from the conducted current as well.
Looks safe enough to me, he even has a full harness on. My biggest worry would be the chopper crashing.

Conduct from where to where?. And what current likely?...
This is AC, and the chopper would be capacitive earthed. Air is also slightly conductive. It would be interesting to see how the situation would change when below freezing and dry.
The current was sufficient to be seen in broad daylight though I have no idea of the magnitude, nor the magnitude vs time. I would imagine there would be an initial current spike on the formation of an arc, then the arc extinguished at the AC crossing point and for the cycle to repeat itself at
120Hz for the US.
It's probably only a very low voltage, since this 'is' the USA :-)
