The greatest Chinook I know is called Bravo November. This amazing Lady was with me during the Falklands War, having only just left the Atlantic Conveyor before she was attacked, in 1982.. She was then with my sons in Afghanistan in 2003-2004. That`s a real veteran and deserves a place in any hall of fame.
Now in a museum after serving for 35 years Falklands first gulf war iraq and Afghanistan they say just a machine no this aircraft was a friend to hundreds of people in its lifetime this aircraft will never be forgotten and rightly so
Hi, I was a Crew Chief and Flight Engineer on A, B, and C Model Chinnocks and Loved the Job. Two Years I Nam and the rest of the time in the States a total of about 17 and a half years flying and 2 and a half years in Armor as a Tank Commander.
Hi, Robert. My son is 19, and he chose to become a Chinook repairer, currently in the AIT program in US Army. I hope, he doesn't get disappointed in his choice and doesn't fail his training. He eventually wants to fly helicopters. He gets discouraged very quickly. I hope he will love it.
@@БабаМаня-в6о He should meet good people that will learn new jobs and like them. I hope that he will learn that if he or any one else makes a mistake that folks could die. I think thatAviation is a good field of work to be in, with my time in aviation when I got out of the US Army I got a job for 29 years at Bell Hilocpter. I wish him Great luck for picking a great Aircraft. It has been around since the 1950s.
Im in the canadian army cadets. Over the summer i went to a training camp. In ottawa. We flew over into Quebec. And back. So yes i flew in the back of it. Walking up to the back of it was amazing. Although we were wearing ear plugs. The vibrations of it were amazing. Every time the blades did a full 360. The ground shook. Its probably a once in a life time experience. Unless they send it there again. Then it will be my second time
Having flown in the chinooks i have to say thank you to the pilots and crew for getting us out of some really shitty situations there was a pilot in Afghanistan who was shot in the head and carried on flying bless them all the unsung heroes
Ahhh memories of my time in the air cav. Loved flying in a hook! I was a 68E prop & rotor guy on flight status. I used to use a strobe light to track the blades in flight. We had C and Super C models back then.
best part for me about getting in the back of one of these things when they're ready to go is the brief blast of heat as you get on from the exhausts. Especially on a cold day.
I kind of liked the pre-flight inspection. Watching the blades rotate with the collective input was pretty cool! It really give you a visual indication of how cyclic works. Also, it's crazy to see a helicopter getting started up with an APU, but it is a turbine :)
Watched one at Ft. Campbell come down the hanger line, somthing popped and the blades began hitting each other. I remember we had all our uh-1s and oh-58s grounded till all inspections were completed. We replaced 2 shin bubbles and 4 windshields then fix some holes in doors. We were running for our lives.
am not an American but I got chance in 2008 and we got to fly with this beast.it flies from a lower distance,very heavy,slow,and it can lift heavy things like Tankers

One of the greatest helicopters ever I have these fly over my house a lot we’ve got an army base not too far from where I live the chinook is one of the coolest helicopters out there and they are one of the biggest helicopters ever our military has some cool stuff and they are all used to protect us that’s why I love our military they rock
Crew is 2 pilots and between 1 to 2 loadmasters powerplant two 3750 shp avro lycoming turboshafts speed over 160mph ceiling not far off 20.000ft range 440 miles
Normal configuration is 44 Troops seated. You can add a middle row but makes it slow to load and unload but carries 55 seated OR you can fold the seats up and carry 100 standing.
Back when I was a kid the Canadian Airforce flew the CH-113 Labrador which was a twin rotor just like the Chinook is. Anyway one flew over my house one time as well you could hear that coming from quite a distance before it got anywhere close the whole house shook as it approached! I will never forget the raw power that thing had. When it landed at the nearby airport which is where it was headed my dad and I drove out to see it and the crew spotted us near the gate. So they came over and asked if we wanted to have a closer look at it. It was the coolest experience of my life as a kid! Lol
@Ian Mangham nice I have had a few close encounters with a few military aircraft. You just have to be in the right place at the right time! Lol the Ch-113 Labrador is still the most memorable for me. Cuz I heard it and sounded like rolling Thunder. I started looking for that thing in shear terror as it approached and it wasn't anywhere near my house yet then all of sudden it was right on top of me it seemed and he was quite low because like I stated he was going to the airport which wasn't all that far away. I wish we had today's cameras and technology back then because it would have made a great video that is for sure.
@@losi5ivet29cc cool story but they are actually very different aircraft. The CH-113 has a max take off weight of 24,300 pounds (which is what a Chinook weights empty). An MH-47 Chinook has a max take off weight of 54,000 pounds. If you thought the CH-113 shook the house, you would be in awe of the 47!
Meaning = big wind. I am familiar with the “chinook winds” that come down from the mountains in Colorado that “eat” the snow. The name that Boeing selected for the CH-47 is very appropriate. Stand near a Chinook when it is lifting a heavy load. Well ... TRY to stand.
20 years old, MOS 67U20/30 (Army), 1968 Vietnam, 179th ASHC & 243rd ASHC, Crew Chief/Door Gunner, TET, CH-47A model, before engine intake screens, single hook, resupply missions, troop deployments, long time ago.
'68 must have been a tough time to be in Vietnam. Glad you made it home.
Fascinating piece of machinery! I hope one day to see one up close! The Chinook is one of my faves!!! Thank you Igor!!!
The sound of the blades slicing the air is like music to my ears

Great piece of engineering. ✌️
Such a unique and iconic aircraft, with such a cacophony of sounds, otherwise known as a Woka-Woka to my children.

That's one bad-ass chopper.

Whew!!! I thought that guy was running the remote control!!!
That's one heck of a drone.
It's amazing to me how the rotors don't hit each other
They are geared to intermesh
The rotors are linked by an interlocking gear/chain mechanism which prevents that from happening
32 near misses a second.
