Doors are harder to open and the dunker could go any which way it feels like, sometimes the rescue swimmers will help it along as it wants to stay up right until its in the water. It sucked but seemed to be more realistic..I've never ditched in a helo thankfully so I wouldn't know.
I have a buddy going through RSS right now, and his group ended up doing it 7 times... I think he said a couple times they gave them blacked out masks and you just had to 'feel' your way out.
