Going with kenchan's idea, I found two other tools which are helpful:

2-inch-mirror-with-flexible-shaft-97217.html

And

OEM-24-1-2-in-flexible-reach-3-in-1-magnetic-claw-and-LED-pick-up-tool

My friend I once spent 3 hours looking for a screw in the oil cooler cooler section on a UH-60 sucks even more when your PLT SGT is just standing there watching you.

When that happens you kind of have to find it, not just leave it where ever it dropped LOL. I lost a plastic clip removing my battery just recently. Fell somewhere and was never seen again.
