Operation Skyhook

The Fulton surface-to-air recovery system, or as I like to call it, the "Skyhook Surprise," is a nifty little trick the CIA and US Military use when they need to pick someone up without bothering to land. It involves using a harness and a self-inflating balloon with an attached lift line. A B-17 swoops in with a V-shaped yoke and snatches you up like a claw machine. Then the flyboys reel you into the cargo bay. It's the world's most intense Uber ride.
