You only provide enough info to compute the horizontal distance without air resistance.

His horizontal component of velocity is 100 m/s
after 2 s he traveled 200 m horizontally

With air resistance, we would need to know his mass or weight and the altitude of the helicopter to compute the resistance loss.
