Yes, if I'm in a Chinook with a pilot that goes up for EXTENDED periods of time above the drop-death zone, I ask for him to let me off before he costs me 1-2000 credits by broked1cking it into a base at cruising altitude.

Some of you "pilots" should read up on covert insertion. Here's some nice reading material: MH-53J Pave Low III - Low Level Insertion Special Forces Helicopter

EDIT: I still think the Chinook needs a passenger-mounted minigun or even just a machine gun. They usually do in real life for insertions/extractions. Plus, take a look at this and tell me if it wouldn't be a nice addition:
