Helicopter Training

Naomi and I had to complete "Helicopter training" because we are both hoping to go offshore to see the oil rig sites. We were given these orange jail-like jump suits, an booties, we had a lot of fun!
Here is the helicopter. The goal of this training is to try and simulate what it would be like if a helicopter crashed. After 2 hours learning in the classroom, we hit the water! Notice, the black circle, that is for when it spins upside down in the water. You cannot release your seatbelt right away, as you will float to the top!
Naomi and I before the helicopter submersion!
Naomi and I got the windows put in, so we actually had to break threw them before escaping. Pretty awesome!
