Wouldn't want to be a tank driver! A wee bit slow for my blood. Never want to be low and slow. Speed is Life!!!

That last scene reminds me of when I was working on the flight line in the Navy and this helo came in and wanted to show off his new toy. His was doin stuff I didn't know a helo could do. We all just stood there in awe, thinkin we were going to see our first helo crash. It was amazing.

They are not always as safe as one might think. Could have also posted this in your helo topic, Vince! This is some heavy-lift capability.

The music isn't AC-DC but there's some great still footage of the Chinook in this video. I miss flying on them ...

Those Chinooks are a beast! haven't seen one in the skin but I believe that there is one here in NZ used for heavy lift forestry work. I have seen the old russian Mils here at Taupo - they're like an unmufflered Massey Ferguson tractor. And about as ugly
