jackso11 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Just wondered if anyone else saw this. I was just leaving the house and a chinook (huge! first time i have seen one for real) came flying in at a hell of a pace, did a very sharp circle over Victoria Park before going down for a pretty quick landing. Wondered if anyone knows anything about it? training is my guess but I was hoping for something exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it's the same Chinook as from these threads? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?221753-Chinook-landed-next-door.&highlight=chinook http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?228657-Chinook-landed-next-door-PART-II&highlight=chinook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Maybe Edd nicked the one from next door, his prisoner got loose and he had to perform an emergency "sex" landing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TubbyTwo Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I work right on the Coast and almost every week we see some form of army helicopters flying along the coast then out to see. Appache's are becoming more frequent at the moment, and f*** me they look and sound mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I've just seen two Apache longbows come over at a few hundred feet. That Mac bloke off Future Weapons was going on about how quiet they are....quiet my arse!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 They are quiet if you're profoundly deaf. As for the rest of us, they are bloody loud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 If one of those came at me on the battle field i would just give up i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
