In the H-60, to answer Toby's post, the aircrewman would lie flat and look through the hook port.

The video below is neat. I can say as an OOD Underway, having done UNREPS like the video, it is much harder to drive the ship and maintain position that it is to VERTREP.

In the UH-1 we would lie on our stomach with our head out the port cargo door. In the Chinook we laid on the floor looking out the hellhole.
Flying missions was always satisfying. You get to put all the training to good use !
