CH-147F (CH-47) Chinook Landing - World's Fastest Military Helicopter

Royal Canadian Air Force CH-147F (CH-47) Chinook Helicopter 147301 is seen on the approach and landing at CZNL in Nelson, British Columbia, Canada. It was an impressive sight to see this RCAF twin-engine, tandem-rotor, heavy-lift CH47 Chinook helicopter in action!
Also included is a Bell CH-146 Griffon in the Search & Rescue SAR livery taking off from CZNL.
The CH-47 Chinook is the current world's fastest military helicopter.

When I was a kid I use to get chills when I heard their distinct sound in the sky above. When everyday helicopter flew over it wasn't a big deal. When I heard the Chinooks coming I'd drop my bicycle and look to the sky until I seen it fly by. They were and still are badass beasts. I'm 47 yrs old now and still pause if I'm not doing anything important to watch them fly over.

[@jeffdavis7376]

This brings back memories of a Chinook landing at our high school in California as a recruiting aid for the U.S.Army, it was pretty cool to see it come in and land. The start up and take off was awesome like in this video. Thank you for showing this

[@tom95521]

Those T55 gas turbine engines don't look big enough to power such a big helicopter. It's amazing they produce 5,000 hp each.

[@bencolombia337]

I love those helicopters and the things their pilots can do with them is incredible. Salute.

[@EdWhisenantAviation]

You know how much I love these Chinook's, this footage can't get any better and the Griffon was the icing on the cake :)

[@williamchanchan7845]

Get to the Chopper !🚁🚁🚁

[@Welshy86]

Thanks for filming this. I was one of the aircraft commanders on the Chinook this summer. This wasn't me however, I never flew the mission down to Nelson.

[@nishachamling1713]

Ooo I had one of those land on our school plot and we got to go in it and explore the areas it was extremely loud

[@Engine201]

Beautiful video of this beautiful helicopter!

[@TheHDAviation]

It was impressive to see, one awesome helicopter!

[@gchyz]

great video!!! love the griffon/412 at the end!!

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks very much! Wish I would have got some better shots of the Griffon, but wanted to share it anyway.

[@mm11sslluuvv]

The bell 412 was good but not as good as the C47 chinook but the sound of the APU on the chinook sounds like a freight train

[@edostuff]

Hell Yeah! What a Beast!

[@TheHDAviation]

This one was awesome to see!

[@matthiashaenni]

Superb video of this great helicopter!

[@MrPants1970]

Wow, incredible quality video!!

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks a lot!

[@DC8Combi]

I worked on that aircraft along with the other Royal Canadian Air Force CH-147F's.

[@TheHDAviation]

Very cool, that must have been really interesting working on these massive machines.

[@DC8Combi]

TheHDAviation they are a lot of fun to work on and awesome to fly in. I’m currently working on the last few US Army’s CH-47F’s. Will we be going into production on the CH-47F Block II next.

[@fredperry65]

we was given the best toys in the world and some off us lost god bless the mums and dads

[@destinflorida6462]

Beautiful

[@TheHDAviation]

Love these impressive machines.

[@destinflorida6462]

@@TheHDAviation yes i love these "chinook" i live near a small airport and they land basically enxt to my front door all the time.i also love to fly them in Arma 3

[@pspboy7]

The Chinook. Sikorsky's pride and joy!

[@MarkBrandonAviation]

This is a really good video! I’m glad you got it, hopefully no weeds got in your mouth when it past! I got this exact helicopter once landing/ departing... i dont know why I never posted it; I should! Great work

[@TheHDAviation]

Definitely got a bit dusty filming this one haha. Nice, you should definitely put it up, I'd love to see it!

[@Waxcoat]

I love helikopters

[@Gilmar.Oliveira]

5:07 check out the door at the right.

[@klingonradar]

It has been stuck there ever since

[@jeffdavis7376]

Yeah the rotor blast blew it open! 🤣

[@mm11sslluuvv]

Imagine chartering one of those helicopters

[@TheHDAviation]

I don't think you'd want to imagine the cost 😄

[@M_Alistair]

You should look up British Airways Helicopters. They flew Chinooks during the 80s.

[@JelmersAviation]

Spectacular video mate!

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks!

[@morganecroissant8392]

Awesome helicopter!

[@TheHDAviation]

Indeed!

[@boingobadger9846]

Biggest yet fastest. A weird but beautiful combo.

[@TheHDAviation]

I totally agree!

[@Aviation_Videos]

Hell yeah that is Awesome

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks for watching!

[@supertyfon1736]

Awesome catch :)

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks!

Love these, been in them, Lynx is much faster though

[@c.mendez426]

The same for the UH's,never die.

[@kerrytackett9457]

Very awesome

[@Xav974runAviation]

Very nice video !! :)

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks a lot!

[@xenofalcon]

What they don't tell you is that this video is slowed down, that's how fast it is.

[@ilovejav8910]

can't believe this big ass helicopter can only carry up to 5 engineers

[@-AV8R-]

Great video! They seem to spend an inordinate amount of time blocking the runway, does anyone know the tactical reason for this?

[@c.mendez426]

Long live CH-47's best helicopter ever made,thanks to Boeing aircraft,best factory in the world for years to come,so has i always said on my time,keep them flying.

[@CentralPASpotter]

Superb catch! I've seen them fly over my house or flying in/out of Fort Indiantown Gap but I haven't gotten the chance to get a close up.

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks very much, this was the first one I had ever seen. One impressive machine!

[@IvanCruz-ys6by]

Gosh, I miss flying her. So many bad guys heard that sound before being snatched👌🏼

[@aviationvideosgraz]

Impressive video of this very unique helicopter. I wish I could be so close one day, I always missed every landing of the U.S. Chinooks at Graz when they are here for a fuel or night stop.

[@TheHDAviation]

Thanks, I was so happy to catch this one. It's truly an impressive helicopter. I hope you see some more and catch them landing at Graz soon!

[@jshepard152]

That's pretty country. Reminds me of Washington.

[@TheHDAviation]

Ya, there's lots of great scenery around. We're very close to Washington too, only about a 50 minute drive.

[@BritishAndProudMoFoe]

I thought the British Lynx was the fastest helicopter in the world?

[@OG-Ghost33]

I went on 16 missions in Afghanistan and that afghan school bus was my means if transport every time

[@TheTomyossarian]

Hello, prop wash, my old friend

[@carterbishop274]

Sounds like the uh 1n twin Huey

[@ImpendingJoker]

Pretty sure the Westland Lynx is still the fastest helicopter in the world, though with the advent of compound helicopters like the Raider I'm sure they are even faster than the Lynx.

[@TheReuMusic]

Chinook is not the fastest helicopter in the world. That title belongs to the Lynx, modified variant went 249.09mph in 1986, the AH.7 variants for the Army were capable of 205mph flat out. This aircraft does 195mph, so possibly second fastest behind the Lynx

[@mike.47]

Great video of a great aircraft but fastest? How about the Westland Lynx......

[@TheHDAviation]

Yes, I think you're right. Though I don't think there are any left in military service.

[@mike.47]

TheHDAviation the lynx has been updated and is now called the Wildcat.

[@DC8Combi]

@@mike.47 she's the fastest US Military helicopter. When dropping off or picking up the Chinooks Apache escorts cannot keep up with her as she high tails it out.

[@mike.47]

DC8Combi I appreciate the chinook is the fastest US helicopter, but the title of this video states that it’s the “world’s fastest.” I rest my case.

[@dennism103]

Shut up and take my money

[@r_ic7]

Pilipino. needs 17 units of chinook helicopter to support deliver of rice cargo and other vegetable around the country

[@georgesantiago6005]

God bless USA.

[@Cormorant1011]

Are you sure the chinook is the fastest military helicopter? I thought the British had the fastest helicopter in the world.

[@CessBee123]

We had the Lynx in Army and navy service, but recently replaced it with the newer Wildcat. This could be the fastest serving helicopter, I don't know.

[@daviddunn6563]

Not the fastest.... the British Lynx military helicopter is the fastest... so fast it can do a loop the loop

[@josephlewis1107]

I love the Chinook but it’s not the fastest military helicopter, many faster out there, Mi24, Merlin etc. The fastest is the British Lynx 🐈‍⬛

[@dade4537]

fastest helo took 3 fvckin minutes to get on the ground..... right

Lynx and puma are faster

[@LanielPhoto]

World's fastest Military Helicopter ???? What about the Apache, or the Blackhawk, or...never mind. Obviously you make ridiculous statements without checking the facts,
