4K UHD Chinook Royal Air Force Full Display

[@scopex2749]

I served as an engineer on the Chinooks in the RAF. Now I'm near retirement and guess where I live? Half a mile from the base where they are! PARADISE! We get to see them practicing for MONTHS for this display! These pilots are THE BEST.

[@jasecee8992]

Question.... How on earth do the chinook's manage all that stress? That has always been a question on my mind, The rotors for example, against the forces of the sharp turns.

[@marcs_best_airshow_videos]

I heard that the Chinook Demo of the last year is not so intensive anymore because of the stress on the aircraft and sharp turns aren't made anymore . The same thing happened with the Lynx heli who performed a real loop in the years 88 - 93 . Later it was just a turn back loop from the hoover.

@@jasecee8992 It can lift 12,000kg (26,000lbs) on its cargo hooks. At an empty weight of about the same, it can lift two of itself (inclusive), essentially. And while I fully believe the thing could maneuver in such a way to produce that kind of loading on the airframe and rotors, I dont think these maneuvers approached that at all. These aerobatics are showing off its performance envelope, not its operational envelope. Theres lots of stuff all sorts of aircraft can only do once and still make it back home......We just dont usually get to see it ;)

[@Mountianlions69]

You live near RAF Odiham? I served 12 years there between 87-99

[@CobraEmergency]

The crew must have stomachs of concrete! Such amazing maneuverability.

[@dexter2433]

this aircraft is so stable it feels like nothing more than a six flags ride when doing stunts ...it is a air frame from the 50s so well proven platform

[@debbieburton938]

My obsession... Living by the air base you can hear them coming for miles.. Best sound ever

Wow really impressive demonstration. That nose down short stop was seriously cool

[@DollyRanch]

Insanity! Unbelievable flying

[@GOTOHOBBIES]

These helicopter pilots flying and their crew are absolutely amazing and thank you for amazing flying skills.

[@SalSavia-y7x]

Ahh! My old office! Do miss it! 67U do it all !!

[@CocoaBeachLiving]

I had no idea a Chinook could do these maneuvers 👍

[@mandi8345]

Not only are they ridiculously maneuverable, period. Like, as in not just for their size. But they're also one of the fastest helis in the military. And that is not meant to imply the others are slow. The CH-47 (some variants) can haul all of the ass if they choose to....

[@petee1968]

That sound! ❤

[@alfs222]

Class machine! CLASS VIDEO!! THANK YOU!!

[@marcs_best_airshow_videos]

Thank You , Greetings

[@gazof-the-north1980]

Arguably the RAF's finest asset. Only the USA has a larger Chinook fleet than we do!

[@oceanic8424]

I'm glad the Canadian Forces decided to acquire new ones back into the fleet, years after they sold their original fleet to the Dutch. The CF can be shortsighted at times. It was only after getting the new ones that they created CMERT, based on the British MERT concept.

[@hades0ne166]

4:52 minute. Der chinook verneigt sich wie Tänzer und sieht dabei unglaublich gut aus. Für mich ist das der schönste Hubschrauber der welt.

[@DougBrighTan_o7]

Marvellous Chinook maneuvers 😎

Very nice video. Amazing demonstration and piloting of a helicopter. I like this machine, and it's my favorite.

Look at that beast go!!!!!

[@유경재-o2q]

Wonderful! Oh my god!

[@MrPantss]

Great zoom lens, but you don’t get a real sense of the aircraft movement, it’s a shame the camera person did not zoom out a little so there is ground showing or something to see the helicopter moving against an object to orientate the video for the viewer. Awesome aircraft though.

Does anyone else get nervous about those two rotors?

[@msdawnga7]

That's beauty of engineering and physics

[@ahh980]

These pilots are awesome .

[@jimdevlin2138]

its great to see a big WOCKA WOCKA being flown like this , great machine and a fantastic driver, and well done to the big handed loadie in the back

[@gmoore9449]

I get airsick just watching this. Incredible flying!

[@PeterLGଈ]

A hint and a plea for people videoing aircraft like this ... keep the ground in view. It gives the viewer something to compare the aircraft's attitude and speed to.

[@oceanic8424]

[01/09/23] Pitching the nose up and flying backwards on the rear wheels while ensuring the rear blades don't strike the ground is a mad manoeuver, especially with the pilots being so far forward. What is the blade ground clearance on such a manoeuver? The pinnacle manoeuver is also very hairy looking.

[@Dragon240264074]

Amazing freaks. Those guys from the RAF

It gave us a bow at yhe end awwww

They should bring this to fleet week san francisco

[@oceanic8424]

You need to get the Navy to invite the Army's Chinooks to fleet week. IDT the Navy or Marines have any like these?

[@xorxpert]

Believe it or not, they can fly upside down

[@stephensmith4480]

To think that These Machines can outrun an Apache.

Thanks .This was filmed with a Sony FDR AX-1 , this camera is still in reparation (3Months) and for the moment I use a Panasonic HC-X 2000

The door guys need to grab a paddle so on the high speed pass instead of waving it looks like they're paddling like mad......Well, I think id be funny.....

The announcer is CLUELESS about annunciation. His voice is too high and lacks command and authority, he’s RUSHING his (clearly read from a script) lines, and is seemingly oblivious to how the acoustic nature of a P.A. system needs to be learnt properly before using one
