The Sea King is a classic by any definition.
However, as a Chinook Pilot, I would like to remind you the Chinook first flew on my birthday in 1961, and is still rolling off the assembly line as the CH-47F. They no doubt will be flying long after I depart for warmer regions with perpetual fire.
CH-47F, 98-00011, which stared off as an A model before being upgraded to a D model, is now 44 years old and still going strong.
That is the difference between a classic and an Icon!
I wonder if the Sea King will outlast the S-92?
