  • A trio of US Army MH-47G Chinooks of the 160th SOAR (Special Operations Aviation Regiment) made a stopover at Tri-Cities Airport (KTRI) for a break. I got to the airport in time to see the start-up and departure of the helicopters. 05Oct18

      Chinooks top speed, 196 mph. Fully loaded, on board are fuel and weapons for Apaches. Apaches beg Chinooks slow down, even with just fuel, we can't keep up. And that's a fact Jack

    This is probably the most mass produced heavy lifting helicopter made. It Is utility at its apex. There is nothing without utility purpose inside it. I would have to say it is probably the most purpose built helicopter on the planet. I find vehicles that are purpose built beautiful. Old MBs, GPWs, HMMWs, a deuce and a half, unimogs, would be a perfect vehicle for me. I want a utility vehicle with no fluff at all for a daily driver. Heat, a seat cushions, are the only, "non utilitarian," options I would want. All the power stuff, "intelligent," gizmos, and creature comforts in modern vehicles assures me I will never buy one.
