French create nearly unbeatable world record:

The highest altitude takeoff and landing was done in a French-made helicopter. The thing flew to the top of Mount Everest, landed, and took off again. The only way to really beat that is to go up there, build a 10 foot raised platform, and land on that

There are much more worthless world records set by Americans every day...lets not turn this into a French bashing thread.

So a French corporation created one of the most stable, easy to fly, and reliable civilian helicopters around... what better publicity can you get than to show that your design can do things that some military-grade helicopters could not?
It proves that it's an excellent search and rescue helicopter, and what better benchmark can you find than the world's tallest mountain?
