Obviously, they would be fitted with a seat. No expectation for someone to hang-on from underneath.

If they can fly with such a noisy thing, they can also be rescued using land-based vehicles. If you are evacuated in a device like this, you will absolutely get shot in the process. Or a faster FPV drone will catch this one, with the person having nowhere to escape.

Much easier to hit an aerial target of this size than one obscured by scenery.

It could be useful for an Evac over an impassable body of water? A quick get them across then drop em kind of thing?

I think they would get bopped after 10 sec in the sky. Incredibly conspicuous.
