As we found out in Vietnam, the Chinook ($$hithook) is the only aircraft in the world that can have a mid-air collision with its self.

I flew UH-1H Hueys in Vietnam & for a decade after that.

But Chinooks scare me with their five transmissions, the fifth being the `combining box’ that keeps the rotors synchronized & away from each other. If it fails & the rotors kiss, it’s all over.

That being the case, IMO the SEAL Team Chinook was brought down by an inside job involving our `noble’ Muslim allies.

So fed up with those people.
