Miss those D models. I was a CH47 IP at Rucker from 90-91.

I went through the CH-47C transition course in 1981. Lot's of fun! Never made the Army a career though...JF

I was a flight engineer on the late A and early B model hooks with the 213th. Black Cats of Phu Loi 1967-1968. I love these birds, and can smell the turbine exhaust during start up to this day, 40 years later. I have followed the development of the ch-47 and feel proud of my involvement early on. For those still flying, enjoy every moment you can as it all will end way earlier than you want it to. Keep up the great wor Patriots. Former Black Cat
