If you jump from a side door, rotary-wing lead, turbulence, next to the fuel tank and landing gear and other equipment, a lot of obstacles. The more important point is that you can jump from the run-up to accelerate the end of the door, and the lack of depth from the side door off, away from the machine speed is difficult to improve. Therefore, outside the military have a lot of parachute material that: parachuting from a helicopter off-side door is a great risk subjects, a little negligence on the parachute and the helicopter could bring great harm to itself.
