    The blades on a chinook rotate at only 225 rpm; not six thousand 😂. 15U Chinook maintainer

      i just jumped on to say the same thing....can you imagine a 350lb blade turning at 6k rpm.....dude fact check. it might be before it goes into the xsmn but not at the blade

    This is more than just a we bit overdramatized. They can employ blade braking from the cockpit via a hydraulic accumulator with zero engine power and zero risk to the crew. I suppose the use of manual "blade ropes" was part of the exercise and makes for "better TV". Also, they weren't "trapped" on the mountain as there was a second Chinook in the exercise. These exercises are always done with a "hot" exfil/evac available.

  • @Penfold101

    Makes you wonder why they didn't spec the rotor brake when they ordered them - wouldn't have any issues then...

    I'm sure the Army Safety Center wants to see idiots jumping up to stop rotor blades. There is no published procedure for this, but in extreme situations, you can use the blade ropes like a lasso...

      @razorsharpbt Last time this happened to me, we had to reposition to a better spot and turn the nose away from the wind. The blades eventually stopped.

    I have fixed and rotor license. I had fixed license before I had a driver license. My grand father had a crop dusting company he passed down to my brother and myself. We are both doctors so we had to hire pilots. But I hire guys that know stuff they don’t need to know that strive to better there self. These dumb asses don’t even know the rpm to there own rotor system which gets under my skin. The Delta and foxtrot both spin at 225 RPM. The engine rpm is 6K but the damn rotors spin at 225rpm. The fastest rpm you will find is 450rpm main rotor and tail rotors spin around 5,000 rpm usually. But. Main rotors peak at 450rpm. I’ve never seen one faster.
    I have a Huey and it operates at 324rpm. A bo-105 bk117 is in the 400’s.
