Yeah, on a cold day like that, those helicopters do have a lot of lift, but if you want a proper light helicopter, you need a Hughes OH-6. This is a great video for remembering. I was responsible for training and running a recovery crew; we personally retrieved about 24 OH-6's (using our best Hueys) from mountain ravines, etc. Then flew OH-6s myself for the next 6 months or so. A most amazing helicopter.

[@robertronan1054]

Damn boys. Production value is off the charts. Literally no one would get to see this stuff and things without your team. Holding those spaghetti slings under that bird and then have perfect tight rigging... Top Fuggin Shelf gents. Well done \m/

[@benbrown8147]

I flew C model and Super C model Chinooks in Vietnam in 1970 and 1971. This was done very differently than the thousands of sorties I flew during that year. Our flight engineer, crew chief and door gunner were just as important as the pilots in picking up a load and setting it down exactly where it was needed by the people on the ground. The Chinook never let me down.

The engineers at Vertol were part insane, and part genius. Also, underway VERTREP with as many as 4 Phrogs in the mix for 6 to 10 hours, is a rush.

[@MultiPurposeReviewer]

That aerial shot of the Chinook hovering over the trailer as the guys hook it up really impresses upon you (or at least on me) the incredible technology that is a helicopter. Through human creativity and innovation, we've created the ability to take a 12 ton piece of metal and suspend it in midair, hundreds of feet up, stationary, without any external support, by just moving air around. I love helicopters and I understand how they work, but that image really drives home just how incredible that creation is.

[@mort7987]

Such a gorgeous piece of technology capable of so much lifting and flying. And to think that this was all designed in the 50s and built in the 60s, some really smart engineers working on this back in the days.

Trent’s drone footage and skills are WILDLY GOOD. Excellent collab!!!

[@grumpyvet7670]

I was stationed at MCAS Yuma from 87-90. For about a month I was tasked with delivering parts to other squadrons in CA. A couple times I flew in a CH 46 (I was not a pilot). The pilot saw a farm with some old cars, so he decided to circle it. I swear, it felt like it was going to twist in half during that "maneuver". I have not had the desire to ride in one since.

I did a lot of volunteer work with the fraternity of the desert bighorn sheep in Nevada, we used helicopters all the time to move our building materials & work crews up to locations high in the mountains. This job reminds me of so many of the equipment and material lifts that I worked on. We built water collection projects for the collection of rain water & used walk in guzzler for all of the wild animals out there in this desert. Watching this lift brings back alot of memories of working around helicopters. Nice job Heavy-D

They travel to awesome places every few days it seems. All the equipment they get to use for work purposes are amazing machines I'd kill to use for fun.

However due to small town brains & small minded people, females were not encouraged to become pilots. A few years later I met a young pilot from South America that came to the east coast where I lived, by then my dream was shattered by health & family matters.

Hearing and seeing the CHINOOK come in was epic. Being able to help them was one for the books!

Also, my cousin was a chinook helicopter mechanic in the army over in the war in Iraq and in Afghanistan in the early 2000's, he said when it came into him, they looked like swiss cheese from all the bullet holes. I never knew they were that rare to see in person, but they were loud whenever they took off or flew over, everyone knew. and now I live near the airport in Salem, OR, and they have the national guard posted here, and there are more chinooks here haha
