[@RCCopterLove]

Thank you for this fantastic video! Great close up footage of the landing approaches and the takeoffs! Seeing these machines spoolup with the rotorblades interlocking like gears is so stunning to see. I love that you present us these amazing machines from all sides. Very smooth and beautiful formation flying! It must have been impressive to see, hear and experience the power and the force of storm like downwash from relative close! It weas a pleasure to watch AND listen!!

Boeing was an awesome company at one time! Chinooks are one of many great aircrafts they came up with.

[@Epicaviation47]

Yeap thanks for watching

[@pkelly3463]

Veritol Aircraft Corporation was the original manufacturer. Boeing bought the company in 1960/61?

I remember in new Orleans in early seventies I was a teen. There was an active shooter sniper barricaded in a space on the rooftop of the downtown Howard Johnson's hotel. A Marine Chinook chopper shows up unannounced with a 50 Ma Duce mounted in the side opening. That chopper hovered at rooftop level and they shot the shit out of that little block equipment room with the 50. For like an hour. Right in the middle of the central business district with everyone standing around watching and local news live on the air. It was awesome and surreal at the same time. Whenever I see a Chinook I feel I have gone back in time. I bet that you couldn't exactly do that nowadays. L o L. If anyone out there remembers seeing it chime in and if my memories not exactly correct please point it out. I also just remembered it wasn't authorized by the marine corp. A Colonel at the airbase saw it on TV and decided he was gonna do something about that shit and grabbed a Chinook and a crew chief and flew up the Mississippi River in a heavy fog and just showed up with guns a blazing.

This is also a great video

Thanks broo I really appreciate it 🙏

[@gazof-the-north1980]

This is a VERY capable aircraft. It will fly in conditions that would ground other Choppers. The MH-47 (and MH-60) Pilots of the 160th SOAR are the best in the world. 👍

I really never paid attention to how fast these are one flew over head the other day and I checked it out on flight app and it was making 182 knots over the ground that’s fast for a helicopter.

[@Epicaviation47]

CH-47 is the fastest USA military helicopter

Sorry to geek out .... but fun fact. Those helos are friggen fast when empty. Dont let the size fool ya. ❤

[@Epicaviation47]

It is the fastest heli on the military inventory in usa very fast thanks for watching

[@longtabsigo]

It took me several minutes before I realized what was “wrong”. In all my years in SF, I’ve NEVER seen these birds fly in daylight!

[@Epicaviation47]

Nothing is wrong, lol 😆 just a daylight exercise. Thanks for watching

[@pkelly3463]

Maybe you're not looking up enough? KSCK has the 40th Combat Aviation Brigade (40th CAB) that includes CH-47, Lakota's, H-60s attached to the Ca Army Guard. I see the Chinooks traverse class B airspace KSFO all the time. In addition, Columbia Helicopters has or had last fire season two of the D model Chinooks at KAPC. They were flying all over the place.

[@longtabsigo]

@ I was referring to these particular MH60’s from the 160th SOAR.

[@Epicaviation47]

MH-47G and yes is rare to see them on daylight exercises thanks for watching ​@longtabsigo

[@p.c.9714]

14:45 the terminal building and the parking lot is a huge giveaway 😉 Found it within a few minutes for fun. And I live 4 500 miles from here. But this is not a classified information as any airport/airfield in GA or NC is supposed to have SOF aircraft deployed for training purpose.
