CH-46 is a sound that you never forget and will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up and sometimes the onion cutting ninjas even show up when you least expect them and you hear a Phrog. I miss those machines that have kept me and a few brothers awake at night.

I worked on these when in the Navy. We always taxied our birds out the way they show here. However, during my fam school, it was in Tustin at the Marine base, they just took off from their parking spaces and landed same. Guess that changed some time later. It would have been '78 when I was TAD in Tustin.

Linwizz oh ok, so how come the sea knight doesn’t make the same sound as the ch-47 chinook when the sea knight is also a tandem rotor? the ch-47 blades make a thumping sound
@superskullmaster4 жыл бұрын
SuperSmashBros.mp4 the -53’s rotors sit higher off the ground. As for the thumping, it’s because each set of rotors only have 3 blades, so in helicopters the less blades you have, the more you hear thumping (think Original Uh-1 and Bell 206 vs UH-1Y Venom and Bell 407).
@nocalsteve4 жыл бұрын
@@frost7724 The Sea Knight and Chinook are two different helicopters . The Chinook is larger and more powerful with larger rotor blades which is why it sounds different. Also, there’s no clutch for disconnecting the rotors during startup and shut down. Free-turbine turboshaft engines can be started with the rotor brake on. The reason the rotor spins up so fast is that both engines are already at idle when the rotor brake is released. Usually the rotors are slower to speed up if they are free to turn as the engines are started one at a time.
