Chateau d If:
The first leg of the helicopter is 5 miles to the bungee swing. Call that 5 minutes long since it is short.
Chateau d If:
Then they do the swing for 20 minutes.
And then a 30 mile flight to the Rose Bowl. If the helicopter goes 100 mph it will get there in 18 min.
So if they move without wasting time we could expect them to land in Pasadena at:

Slowhatch, you always find the good stuff. So why does this chopper have Gary Power's fin number?
