Straight Up! Helicopters in Action

Fasten your seat belt. The Omnimax film "Straight Up! Helicopters in Action" is about to take you on an adventure around the world from Sierra Leone, where you'll participate in delivering humanitarian aid in the largest helicopter in the world, to Miami for a wild ride in a Black Hawk helicopter intercepting drug runners. Hold on while you swing through the air with five Marines dangling from a rope attached to a CH-46 flying over the Atlantic and swoon as a Cobra swoops low over enemy territory. Try not to slip as you traverse 500,000-volt high wires. Hold your breath as a veterinarian shoots a tranquilizer at a black rhino from a helicopter flying 10 feet above ground in South Africa. Try to keep afloat after dropping into the ocean to rescue an imperiled sailor. You will soon learn that helicopters are not only capable of rapidly responding to emergencies, but in some cases make the difference between life and death.
