Has changing a Utility Hydraulic System Manifold gotten any easier. on the Chinook.

Used to take two people....one inside reaching up through the access panel with a single hand and unable to see what the hand was doing....and one up above looking down giving verbal directions.

I forget how many connections there were but it was pushing twenty or so as I recall.

Then on the Huey....212/412.....there was the infamous "Hell Hole" and its myriad of hydraulic and oil lines....all of which leaked....into which one had to crawl under the aircraft then wiggle up into said "Hole"
