Looks mighty impressive. How many parts are the same as the Vietnam models? Nothing?

Please forgive an intrusion from the civil side.

The above was posted in another recent thread.
The airframe in question, C/No. M3728, is now an MH-47G 03-03728. Prior to re-build it was CH-47D 84-24152.
Before that rebuild it was CH-47C 68-15991...
It's getting close to some of the B-52's & KC-135's for longevity.

I’ll bet the pedals are the same, still got the Vertol logo stamped on them?
