I performed modifications and maintenance on these birds as a DOD Contractor in the ROK from '99-08. 😉😉

Recently I heard the sound of very loud chop, chop, chop, where I live and thought what the hell is that, as it was louder than the regular choppers that fly past where I live. To my surprise there were two of these Chinooks flying past where I live, it was an amazing sight to see and hear. I can only imaging the sound and vibration that you would feel standing so close to them.

Had a hard time standing next to it on takeoff, it had more down draft than anything else by far.

I sure do wish I owned a Boeing CH-47F Chinook! A Boeing CH-46E Sea Knight ( Phrog ) would be nice too! Awesome video!!

Man, awesome video. These birds are iconic. My dad used to tell me about the ones they were picked up in in Vietnam. I'd love to see one one day

I'd love to have gotten a ride! They went all the way up to the Sacramento area from the show...

The loadmaster must have been very happy he had his helmet on at 10:36.

The mechanisms they use to keep those rotors in time must be awsome.

It’s actually incredibly simple. You are lining up splines on a shaft, that’s it really.

Just saw that heli today. What a coincidence lol

I'd never trust a helicopter well enough to stand directly in line with those blades, lol. Seen one too many bad incident videos 😂
@get2dachoppa2494 ай бұрын
There hasn’t been a blade failure of the type you speak of in decades, and I’ve been on them since 1992.

And as for the fool standing on top of a moving helicopter. 🤷🏻♀️ Tbh they all look a bit cavalier with the safety aspects of ground handling. Looks good for the crowds until something happens
@get2dachoppa2494 ай бұрын
From experience, I’m very certain that the guy standing on top was there to make sure there was adequate vertical clearance when the aircraft was being moved from inside the convention center back outside, especially when it was going through the roll up doors.

Very boring. Takes a bloody long time to get away, unlike the military version.
@get2dachoppa2494 ай бұрын
What military are you comparing it to? They left in a noticeably shorter period of time for a first flight of the day than I ever did in 12 years & 1200 hrs of crewing.
