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.

Ahh, my old friend the “Huey.” I miss that faithful old bird.
