Chinook Employment Opportunities

 

 

DID YOU KNOW ? As the F-n-G models are being produced and fielded, many of the D models are being chopped up and scrapped. The next time you partake from a soda can, you may be drinking from what used to be a Chinook helicopter. Please send in your photographs and stories soon. If you don't then, just like the A, B, C, and foreign sold models - the unique history of the D model will be gone forever.

 

 

DOES ANYONE KNOW the tail numbers of the two Chinook helicopters that were crash tested at the NASA Langley Research Center as referenced in this article? We would sure like to know. Please email us.

 

 

HEY CREW MEMBERS and anyone who knows! We would like your opinion. When looking at a D, F, or G model Chinook, how do you tell whether it was a conversion from an A model, a B model or a C model Chinook? Please email us.
