Helicopter lift off Scimitar Portland dive boat

what is the reason you go drive when the helicopter come closer

I know your question is 2 years old, but the answer is that it's safer for the twin-engined helicopter to carry out a lift while maintaining a steady forward speed. That way, if one engine fails, the remaining engine will open up and provide sufficient power to continue the mission. If the lift was done with the helicopter in a hover, and an engine fails, the transition of power from both engines to the remaining good engine could cause a moment of instability for the helicopter. If someone is on the end of the winch when this happens, it could cause them injury.

The forward motion provides more lift. And less engine power is required.
