Not sure if this is applicable with all heavy helos, depending on whether you carry the vehicle on a sling or in the cargo bay.
AFAIK the Mi-6 and Mi-26 can load BMDs in full combat gear (at least road-ready) so they can roll off the rear ramp as if from a glider.
Now the sling transport is another matter, but differentiating between the two modes would require new data in the "carry capacity" field. Also the 'sling' restriction should apply on towed weapons as well, though the recompletion time is much less than on vehicles.
(anything first-hand on this, Suhiir?)

Putting it like this, I'm pretty sure you can sling a vehicle in running condition (minus crew), which would require a handful of minutes to drive away, as opposed to drop-packaged vehicles which are generally, cleaned out, drained from fuel and lubricant, palletized and wrapped in cardboard or something.
Also helicopters don't separate vehicle from crew during the landing as both are dropped in the same hex. You lose half the fun of the concept.

So in the end, not sure the crews separation should apply.
