RAF Chinook IRT, 1310 flt, Camp Bastion

Launching a Chinook for an incident somewhere in the Stan... well... our take on what we do anyway.
P.S. If you're naive enough to believe that this is how we actually work then please keep your comments to yourselves; the cab was serviceable and nothing was done to cause any flight safety issues. The team carried out full checks, ensuring she was ready to go. No Chinooks were harmed during the making of this video... and the teams sanity was saved for another couple of days.

I'm sure 'Da Boss' is my CCF officer, who visits occasionally.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
i understand you guys (and gals) have to have a laugh out there to keep moral up, but pissing around like that on a video does bring back memories of ann airaccident i'd rather forget. If your gonna make a video displaying to the world what you do at least try and put some seriousness into it. Keep up the good work out there, all the best to you all !!!

@whitewingsrich You have obviously completely missed the point of the video... It was not made to show you what we do out there, it was made as a tribute i.e. piss take) to the American way of launching aircraft, hence the high-fives and arse slapping. You don't seriously think we launch a cab in this manner?
