Trainee Recruits At Catterick Undergo UNEXPECTED Lesson In Chinook Helicopters 🚁 | Forces TV

Full story👉www.forces.net/news/trainee-r...
Trainee recruits from the Queen's Division in Catterick have received an unexpected lesson in Chinook helicopter deployment.
The Infantry Training Centre often requests Chinooks for training, but the RAF is only able to supply them on rare occasions.
The Chinooks flew the recruits to where they began the second tactical exercise of their 26-week course, spending four days out in the field.

That guys face when he says “you’ll have to sort your self out” is priceless 😂

[@nearestyoutube]

If I'm incapacitated, you'll just have to sort yourselves out lads. Awesome.

[@malcolmrose3361]

Indeed. If only RyanAir could offer that kind of customer hospitality..

[@disco324]

Chaps

[@PipoDeYoyo]

Right, This is what you should be advertising on T.V for new recruit's, when the soldier said "I get to go around the world and enjoy my job" was a genuine statement. Also the lads who have never been in a helicopter (much of the youth today) were loving it. That's what you should be pushing instead of the main steam advert's. BTW respect to you all :)

[@baniexplores]

Magpie1972 you travel but real real war is different

[@mrwood4557]

Then leave, only too become washed up, mentally ill and left homeless. Whole prison wings are filled with veterans. Streets are filled with homeless veterans.

[@baniexplores]

@Honeysuckle Blossom technology really messes up people tbh

[@coreyg670]

Great to see so many commonwealth lads recently in the media. Well done gents

[@ghostwriter2031]

I served in 24 Airmobile brigade and we spent lots of time in the back of Chinooks - great times

[@orsonkaart1853]

Got my first flight in a Chinook on Ex Keystone, Germany in 87. Loved every second of it !

[@Jeffybonbon]

its most likey one you used from the 1980s

[@wodens-hitman1552]

My first was 87 from menden,Germany to vogelsang in Belgium

[@sneakyjaguar5982]

2:52 "Getting into chinooks, flying off , its going to be the best thing." Best job

[@2old4gamez]

My first flight in Chinook was from Belfast to Bessbrook. No seats left so I got to sit looking out of the main door at the rear. Unforgettable.

[@Mountianlions69]

I was fortunate enough to serve on Chinooks for 12 years in the RAF.

[@adamsmohammed3780]

THAT WAS WONDERFUL TRAINING GOD BLESS ALL THE TROOPS.

[@douglasherron7534]

Did a Chinook deployment from Hohne Camp to the Luneburg Heath in summer 1990. It was a blast hopping over trees and high tension cables like a rollercoaster. Thankfully, no one on our flight puked but someone did from another platoon - it went everywhere (so we were told).

[@elaminmochichi7767]

That was a running joke lmao,

[@karmanyngje4907]

Best chopper to embark after days in the field and you are cold and wet. The big engines at the back pour heat all over you.

[@davepearce6359]

How cool is that. Enjoy your time Guys. 😊👍🏻

[@danielwhyatt3278]

This just looks brilliant.

[@x-files8283]

Awesome soldier...

Thankyou for your SERVICE GOD BLESS YOU 💎

[@Mod-rw9cw]

Exercise Lionheart after 8 days in field got picked up by a Chinny and flew back to Iserlohn. Remember the noise of the twin engines and the size of it .

[@dpaudj]

[@ShanksNLMB]

[@1jbunceiii]

The guy looks like Lewis hamilton!

[@markdevenney5584]

Used to love that feeling of the heat from the twin turbines after a cold wet patrol along the borders of County Fermanagh

[@ScramblerOfFrance]

Did one fly over Brighton? Cuz I saw one on Monday

[@jahhyluv]

Awesome... them chinooks always get the blood pumping.

[@syarheianop]

хорошая экипировка у солдат.

[@colinp2238]

What did they have before the Chinook, besides the Wessex (large helicopters)?

[@Sand4Gold]

Based on all those interviews, has the British Army formed a 'Commonwealth Spearhead Brigade'?

[@lahuresapana8353]

They fly these over my house last night at around 11am they was on night excised

[@RaymondStarr007]

[@RaymondStarr007]

Bryan Minhas cheeky chops but I do live in the uk ...my grammar is ok if you live where I live lol

[@beyondbackwater4933]

[@Jeffybonbon]

That Chinook will be double there age at least very old kit now

[@grahambuckerfield4640]

Some might be, however additional batches have been delivered to the RAF through the 90's and in the last decade too. At the 2018 RAF 100 event in London there was an original 'ZA' registered one in the static display, a crewman confirmed that but they are all updated in a rolling program to current standards.

[@Reticulosis]

If you were to let trainees from bct in any type of helo, I can assure you they will break something or drop a piece of gear out at several hundred feet. I was shocked when they actually let us ride un HMMWVs 😂

[@romeo9017]

Um, not like that....

[@guywilloughby3383]

I know the British Army recruits from within the Commonwealth but the second recruit being interviewed his English wasn't exactly great was it. Surely there has got to be a standard, it's not as though he's a gerber serving amongst other gurkha with british officers who speak nepali

[@para7843]

Don't forget when u take the knee give it back ok that's stealing haha

Was this the british army, the accents sounds foreign also the troops seemed to be of a foreign persuasion.

[@adamwoodford7629]

They're all British and commonwealth citizens..? What's your point, other than making a thinly veiled xenophobic comment?

[@aquillandscroll6428]

All commonwealth citizens, it’s required to be a commonwealth citizen or British citizen to join the army, you ought to educate yourself more.

Isn't the phrase take a knee getting a little overused here, I am not racialist by any means but I do think that everybody should man up and get used to living alongside each other

They had to take a knee or they'd be knocked over by the down draft silly 😂

John Pixie yeah apparently equivalent to 60 mph. Few years ago we had one land at primary school behind our pub on the sports field, it left at about 13:30 just our customers were enjoying lunch on the patio....... should’ve seen the grass and leaves and small twigs that landed in drinks and meals😬🙄😂😂
