The forward travel speed of the helicopter is what your "crosswind" basically is. Once you put angles and elevations into it than it changes some, but it's just relative motion of the gun barrel, bullet, target, and air.

At some point the bullet will stop traveling forward or same direction of copter travel. It may hit the ground before that happens but it has no propulsion to keep it moving.

I'm thinking of shooting perpendicular to direction of chopper travel.
