Usually with a copilot, but not necessarily. The U.S. Army was
who was expecting me to do it.

Ok, this makes more sense. I couldn't imagine a civilian aviation company

Now it's my employer.
Helicopters can usually cut the published visibility in half,
and it's completely legal.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know this about rotary wing aircraft. Seems
to make sense though.
