This is not as easy as it might appear. Prop wash from a helicopter blade will cause a bullet to deviate from point of aim depending on which side of the chopper you are shooting from.
If shooting from the starboard side with clockwise prop rotation...you have to maintain a considerable lead as both parallel target movement and prop wash will move the bullet to the right of the intended impact point.
On the port side you actually have to aim slightly behind the intended point of impact as the prop wash moves the bullet to the right helping to offset the parallel movement of the target.
These are some good shooters....and a good pilot.
