Long enough so the load can't contact the aircraft.

Helicopter design specs refer to this as an External Load. Commonly referred to as a "sling load". Some helicopters use a hoist to lift objects such as a Search & Rescue helicopter. This is a hoist load.
Yes, you can command AI to perform a sling load in ARMA 3 without using the map editor by using in-game commands or scripting. You can use the attach and detach commands in a script to manage the loading and unloading of objects. Additionally, you can use the in-game command menu to order the AI helicopter to transport specific objects if they are within range. Make sure to have the right type of helicopter and cargo that supports sling loading.
The amount of webbing used for a webbing sling drag typically depends on the specific application and the length of the drag required. Generally, a webbing sling is cut to the desired length, often between 10 to 30 feet, ensuring it can handle the load safely. It's essential to consider the load's weight and the type of webbing material to ensure proper strength and safety. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for load limits and usage.
The Supporting unit is responsible for the initial rigging of a sling load. It is then the Load Master's responsibility to check the load for deficiencies before actually shipping it .
In large helicopters that's possible. it depends entirely on how it has been rigged.

By weight.. one strap or chain per 5,000 loads max, and additional straps or chains if you feel they're necessary. Length of the load also determines number of straps, and there should be at least one for every five to six feet of load length minimum, regardless of the weight.
Minimum bearing length refers to the shortest length of a structural element, such as a beam or column, that can effectively transfer loads to the support or foundation without causing excessive stress or instability. It is crucial for ensuring the structural integrity and safety of a building or infrastructure. The specific minimum bearing length can vary based on material properties, load conditions, and design codes. Proper calculations and adherence to engineering standards are essential to determine the appropriate bearing length for a given application.
