Yeah, Evolution is just a mission. There are a couple spinoffs... even a single player version.
Evolution is currently on v3.0... R(e)volution was on 1.5 last I knew, so that may be what you're talking about?
In any case, there should be plenty of choppers which you can parachute from already... just eject.
But adding something should be as easy as this:
1) De-PBO the .PBO.... (get the tools from ofpec tools depot)
2) Put the folder into your "my documents" area, where all your other editor missions are.
3) Open it up in the editor and add a helo.
Note that if you want to make it work like all the rest of the stuff, that will be a serious undertaking. Things such as restricting its use to a certain rank/points level.... respawning it... etc. all of that stuff is scripted, and will only work as designed with what's already there in the mission. You'd need to edit some things quite heavily.
I've taken a look through all the scripts in evolution, and it's a little more than arcane if you're not really a good scripter or a programmer otherwise.
