Sling load smoke question

[rato65]

Does anyone know if at all and how the smoke of a sling cargo can be reduced, shortened or even switched off? I find it problematic when you always have to fly into the smoke which disturbs sight in the most demanding moments, although it switches off automatically after some seconds. Plus, I do not think it is very realistic that we cannot do sling load ops without smoke.

Maybe this was discussed before, then I did not find it. Any hint is much appreciated.
