CHINOOK? I love it to bits! I joined the team in 1982 and thoroughly loved my 5 years on the best pilots' machine in the world. I've lifted another CH47, carried 11700 Kg underslung and enjoyed two-wheel taxy games with the best. Its a beast in turbulence; a delight in straight & level (can you do 160 Kts without a dive?) and I hated my family being a passenger in it!!!!!!!!! This machine has attitude.
