I don't know if this is the correct section?

I don't know wether this is the correct section to post this or off topic but I've just watched the opening of Licence To Kill on TV and it got me wondering wether the U.S. Coast Guard can really do that with their Helicopters Winches - connect with a Cessna Aircraft flown by a bad guy - or is it just because it's James Bond Movie and anything can happen.

The U.S. Coastguard can do that but it depends wither I think they are on
the West coast or East coast.

The scene where Sanchez's plane is hijacked was filmed on location in Florida, with stuntman Jake Lombard jumping from a helicopter to a plane and Dalton himself being filmed atop the aircraft. The plane towed by the helicopter was a life-sized model created by special effects supervisor John Richardson. After filming wide shots of David Hedison and Dalton parachuting, closer shots were made near the church location.
