- Here we see a Royal Canadian Air Force Boeing CH-147F Chinook Helicopter 147301 visiting CZNL in Nelson, British Columbia. This video includes the full engine start-up procedure and the take off.
It was very impressive to see this CH-47 Chinook twin-engine, tandem-rotor, heavy-lift helicopter of the RCAF visiting Nelson!! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
My son in the US Army had a massive TBI and was rehabbing at the Polytrauma Center in Tampa. Also there was an Army officer who took a bullet to the head while flying a Chinook in Afghanistan. I don't want to say his name, but if you're reading this, thank you for your service and looking after my son while in Tampa. You really helped him stay the course and positive.
I just love the chopping sound of the rotors! No more UH 1s in service so when I hear it, I know I will see a Chinook!
Same here, those massive rotors really produce quite the sound!
Chinooks still fly in Iraq and Afghanistan
@@andrewpatterson9045 they still fly almost everywhere.

We (particularly us aviation nuts) are so accustomed to this and other helicopters it's almost commonplace, but if you step away then come back and view this thing like someone who's never seen one it is an ungodly contraption - huge spinning blades inter-meshing, the whole thing looking as heavy as a classroom building, making chopping noises that change in pitch and volume, blowing everything around it away before lifting into the air as effortlessly as a helium party balloon! What an amazing species we are that we can imagine and build something like this ...
Second best Sound after the Huey... Nice Camera !!
Thanks! Nothing beats the Huey, still my favourite sounding helicopter of all time.
Had the privilege of flying the A, B & C models for 18 years and yes I still miss it 30 years latter!
Very nice, that must have been very interesting flying in these giant helicopters.
Me too.
Sure? That's good
As did I: 1970 - 1977. Ine year in RVN and 1.5 at Campbell for the 101.
They pass my house on a regular basis in the village I live in The Netherlands. Last year there was a funeral of a retired helicopter squadron leader in a graveyard further in our street. A Chinook showed respect by doing a low pass over the graveyard and doing a 'wing-wave' which was pretty awesome!
Nice, that's great you get to see these impressive helicopters often. That must have been really cool seeing the low pass and wing wave!
TheHDAviation and sometimes there are some low passes of Apaches and Cougars. We even had an Apache hovering over our garden, maybe 100 meters which was quite spectacular! Love it!
I once had one flying over me at a fairly low altitude. That thing just shook the ground. Incredible machine!
Nice, that must have been an impressive sight!
2:30 the blades begin to spin
9:27 moves on wheels
12:15 takeoff
Thank you man
Thx

Nelson is really a good place for aircraft lovers. I envy this guy! If I used to grow up there, my grades would be near zero, because I´d spent all my afternoons at the airport, instead of staying home doing homework.
Okay, I am officially going to use that as one of my excuses for past bad grades haha. It really is a great place for aircraft lovers, though it has been quiet these days. I hope the airport traffic will start picking up again soon as some nicer weather arrives.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
The CH-147F Chinook is a beautiful helicopter, I want it to remain operational for many decades to come, and never need to be replaced unnecessarily.
I love the Chinook as well, one impressive machine. I'm sure they will be operating for many decades to come.
I remember pumping up the accumulator near the ramp to build up enough pressure to start the APU. Fun times.
And pilot blew the start,
Had to go pimp it up again
I almost caught a chinook at my home airport but I was 5 minutes too late, anyway great video!
That's too bad you missed it, I hope you're able to catch one in the future. Thanks!
I can always tell when a Chinook is going to overfly my house by the super fast and deep egg beater sound. Once I saw a mixed squadron overfly of 4 and 4 blackhawks. Awesome engineering, over 50 years on.
After the APU starts they set all of the avionics (radios, gps, altimeters), emergency system checks (engine fire handles/bottles), Hydraulic systems checks (2 main hydraulic systems) thats when you see the blades move up and down but not rotate, the blade pitch is controlled by hydraulics. Then you hear the #1 engine start, #2 engine start (both are also hydraulically started). Once both engines are started the ACFT is in "Ground" condition, all instruments for engines, transmissions, hydraulics, electronics are checked. Pilots are listening to the "tower information" which gives them wind speed, wind direction, altimeter settings and any notices to airman. Then the engines go to "flight" condition. After that any delay in take off is only getting/waiting for clearance from the tower for take off. The Canadian Army took delivery of those CH147F's in 2014, I believe they were all new build aircraft.
hydraulically started? I did not know there was a system like that. I though the engine used bleed air from the APU or a already started engine?
how many chinooks do they have in the canadian forces Dean ?
@@laz288 The APU supplies 3500 psi hydraulic pressure to start the engines. The 2 main hydraulic systems provide 3000 psi and you "can" start one engine off the other in a pinch but they require 3250 psi to start under normal conditions. The APU on the Chinook does not provide bleed air. The engines also do not provide bleed air for heating like many other helos, the Chinook has a stand alone heater that provides 200,000 BTU's per hour.
@@danielseguin6389 Canada bought 15 CH-147F's
@@deanhayden8681 thanks for the info
Very nice video! Sharp focus, and *NO* idiotic jingle!
Great video mate.👍
I worked on the CH-47D at CHI in Oregon 4yrs. What an awesome aircraft.
I love Chinooks. They're a Helicopter, a Harrier Jump Jet, a small version of the ass end rescue/loader of a C-130 or a C-141. Awesome.
They're definitely impressive machines, always cool to see one in action!
Legend has it, the landing gear are still down to this day
When I was in the US Army my mos was 15U(CH-47 Chinook Helicopter repairer) I worked on these. I still miss it.
When i was in it was a 67 u.
Yep 67u10 when I was in
Sarah V
Thank you for your service baby ❤️❤️
67u also baby
The CH-47 is the most heavy hauling Helicopter that I've seen up close and I love the power that it has and Pilots who have flown them can tell you all about this outstanding Helicopter during Ground and Air support for our troops.
I guess like people, a helicopter needs its sleep... lol
I so want a Chinook, if I was ever filthy rich I'll get one and daily it. Land it in the supermarket car park and go food shopping, like a boss. Like THE boss.
My 2nd favorite helicopter after the AS365/HH65 Dauphin/Dolphin. Magnificent helicopter! 🚁
Had a group of 4 of these fly over my house one day they were low barely over the treetops it felt like a fuckin earthquake the house and everything in it was shaking i ran outside cause I didnt know what was going on as soon asi did i heard them and looked up in time to see them fly over ill never forget that it was freakin awesome
Amazing catch my friend! Thumbs up! ;)
Thanks, this was one impressive helicopter to see visiting CZNL!
Where i live we used to have willow grove and warminster nadc. In the 80s there would be lots of helicopters, c-5s and warthogs flying over. I kinda miss it.
Very cool, you must have got to see a ton of cool aircraft.
At lift off, there's always been this little part of Me that wants to see the gear retract and fly away clean.
Love the UH-1 and the CH-47.
RIP Uncle Bobby. A model 64-13161, 30-August-1969 Nui Dat Vietnam.
I love the sound of the engines and props
Fantastic video my dear friend 🙏🏼✈️
Boeing-Vertol knows how to make a helicopter! I crewed Phrogs aka Ch 46 in the Corps for two decades. Great Video!
Amazing video!!! Beautiful camerawork, great that you got to view the entire startup. I can't wait to see some Aussie Chinooks later this year. Liked and favourited!
HUGE LIKE, I LOVED watching this beast taxi and depart. That is one wicked dude when it's staring you down, very nice footage and close up shots. I said it before but I think this is your best catch all year. I love the Chinook family :)
Thanks very much Ed this was definitely one of my highlights from the summer. One impressive machine!
this has got to be the best sounding helicopter ever made.
The mighty Chinook does sound great, one awesome machine!
Whenever I hear one of these flying by, I have to stop and watch. CH 47 is an impressive craft and has its own unique sound.
They are one impressive machine, and they sure do produce a great sound.
Heard a Chinook last night, the blade slaps are very distinctive
It's true, they do sound great.
@@TheHDAviation Yeah they do
Lovely sound, fantastic footage mate. Really cool to see a helicopter taxiing:) Enjoyed! :)
Thanks a lot Mylos, I was so happy to see this helicopter at CZNL!
Another example of a design that has survived. It is interesting to see military aircraft still flying like the Chinook that first hovered in 1961 and received its US military production designation in 1962. 55 years ago.
jayfmiller I mean if it ain’t broke don’t fix it am I right? 😭
Also the f14 tomcat. Wish they had upgraded it. Like the f15
I love chinook's!
I love the sound. My favourite aircraft
ch-47 chinooks are the badass transport heli.
uplifting to see them and hear them
They're impressive machines for sure.
That is one impressive Machine over there!
Yes, I was really happy to see this one. First Chinook I've seen in person.
Great classic mate! Marvellous takeoff, the Chinook is still the queen of the skies when it comes to helicopters! Liked for sure and have a nice week
It sure is, truly an impressive machine to see and hear in action. Thanks very much, hope you have a great week too :-)
great video of this strong and great and mean looking military chopper, thanks for sharing!
By far one of the best sounding Helos!!
I totally agree!
The RCAF Chinooks are like a whole new helicopter with twice the range of older models!
I fly the "D" model in FSX Steam all the time and I remember watching them fly from Ft Meade as a kid, my favorite helo in the entire U.S. Army, hard to believe they've been around over 50+ yrs!
Nice, bet they're fun to fly on FSX!
The Sea Knight is the Beauty, the Chinook is the Beast.
I gotta admit, I also loved the sound of the Cessna touching down in the beginning.
I couldn't cut the little guy out :-)
About a year or so ago I met a Vietnam Chinook pilot that did some insane shit in Veitnam among flying into the TeT offensive, having his helicopter shot to pieces, hit my mortars etc etc. Only met the man once because he unfortunately passed away, but some of the stories that he was telling me were out of this world.
Coolest trick is to just pause it mid air and admire this marvel!
Awesome video and footage of the beast!
Thanks so much!

If u call this a beast , what you call an MI 26
I agree
I saw a video once of these aircraft running through its capabilities and maneuvering abilities.. this thing is totally insane on what it can do without ctashing.. I couldn't believe what I was seeing in that demp..
Love the unique sound of the twin rotor aircraft used to hear it all the time when I was stationed at Camp Humphreys
AWESOME!! Outstanding video! Cheers Matt
Thanks Matt! This was one of my highlights from CZNL this summer.
1:00
Cessna: “Am I a joke to you?!”
I laughed so hard 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
beautiful, this take off.
They are awesome helicopters! Make excellent models for flying by the way!!
I love the Green/gray paint scheme
One of THE most amazing aircraft ever.
Love these big boys...such a massive piece of equipment.
Very good recording. After take-off most filmmakers get to the max zoom - notwithstanding the fact that the image is often blurred, and the object (Plane, Heli) disappears from the image by the shaking. Very nice also to keep the trees / bushes in the foreground as a reference point.
The filmmaker here understands his craft! Good job - thumbs up.
Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed the recording and thanks for the feedback!
I always been fascinated by helicopters..I always like the old Vietnam hueys
I love the old Huey as well, nothing quite matches that sound!
Man the chinook has a beautiful sound👍🏻
I agree!
I remember helping marshal these for airshow static displays. The amount of rotor wash is just about enough to knock anyone on their back sides but the pilots loved them and I loved working with them on the rare occasion that I was able to. I really miss those days.
Rotor wash at a hover reaches 120mph
If you want to save time, 2:32 rotors actually start to turn, very nice sound as they pick up speed, 12:20 actual take-off from airstrip.
3:35 for APU to engine spin up.
I flew D model Chinooks in the US Army. Great memories.
Nice, that must have been a really exciting career.
It was awesome. Great helicopter. Always got us home. A real workhorse and great to fly.
I once flew in one as a civilian doing a military exercise. My memory of it was when the rotors engaged the vibration was really noticeable in the back then when it got to a certain rotor speed it went all smooth. Great aircraft and as we flew the back door was half open so you could see the scenery of South West Scotland passing by. In case you haven't noticed I'm right into helicopters, lol. Next day we were taken in a Super Puma low level through the glens to North Connell where we boarded a C-130 down to West Freugh near the border with England and back to Prestwick in a Wessex which I think equates to an S-58 in the US.
i once flew it in FSX
Last duty station i worked on their engines
What a classic. Lovely livery. Great Video Mate.
Thanks very much!
Each rotor blade weighs roughly 700lbs each. The drive shaft connecting the two rotor blades is very thin. Amazing.
The blades actually weigh about 500 pounds each
They’re even lighter then that
You're right, I was mistaken. They are around 350 pds each. Give or take about 5 pounds.
One well chosen paint scheme!
Perfect shutter speed to get those rotors looking good.
Those up-and-down blade movements after engine start (before the rotors strted turning) - that's the closest a helicopter can get to shrugging its shoulders, LOL ))
Beautiful machine!
I saw one practicing aerobics at RAF WATTISHAM (England) amazing manoeuvres and wonderful sounds.
Nice, that must have been cool to see!
TheHDAviation it was the time that Prince Harry was based there learning to fly the Apache.
Awesome video! What a stunning helicopter.
Thanks a lot!
Awesome powerful sound!!!!!
It is still amazing to me how the two rotor blades never touch each other
I'm a Chinook Mechanic and the rotors are aligned or we call it "phasing the blades. One blade will be over the tunnel cover and one is pointing directly centered on the nose. the only way blades get out of phase is either a seized transmission or broken driveshaft. Either one of those situations occurs and the helicopter will crash regardless
Did you notice how the APU start sounded way different than on D/E/F models? I date back to the Charlies as a 67U, but I've not heard an APU start like that before.
@@get2dachoppa249 It's freakin loud APU
@@jaycariburton3983 Took the words out of my mouth. Just a question were you a 15U in the Army
So, am I right by stating that both rotors keep same rpm ALL of the time?
Awesome《☆》Nothing like the big thumping of those badboys cruising at 6000ft altitude but the V22 Osprey is a close 2nd ☻
4:30 - that's some amazing camouflage there!
Where is the helicopter? It blends right in
@@phillywhateverguy if I could see it it would be aesthetically pleasing
Awesome video of an awesome machine. Like sitting on an off balance washing machine on a fast spin cycle.
I AM THE U.S. MILITARY 'S NUMBER 1 FAN 💜💜💜
I just saw one of these yesterday up close, and holy crap are those rotor blades huge.
Very cool! So true, the blades are massive.
What a machine, enjoyed the video. Thanks
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video.
Volé muchas veces en el CH-47 Chinook, también en el Huey, UH 1H durante la década de los 70. Serví en la unidad de helicopteros IV. España
Amazing!!! Listen to that sound
Love the sound of the CH-47, one impressive helicopter.
Wow, fantastic footage of this helicopter! LIKED :))
Thanks David!
i love the blade shadows early startup.I grew up near a military base in NSW and these amazing beasts were common in the skys
Nice, that must have been interesting to see them flying around all the time.
Nice vid...this is my favourit type.
45 years ago, the start up on the C model looked the same. APU, then crew in fire watch, rear watch, why do I miss that shit.
Once a rotorhead, always a rotorhead. I miss my days of crewing the OH-58A
67 November and 15 tango here nothin beats the smell of jp4 in the morning😎
Beautiful place and beautiful helicopter
What a magnificent engineering
Best clutches in the world on those baby’s!
What a machine
Really amazing
Wonderful
After about sixty years after first flight, the CH-47 chinook remains on front line. I live in Brazil.
I Love That Sound
Never gets old watching a turbine anything start up!
This has to be a strategic win for India to acquire the Chinooks. They are time tested and will be extremely useful to the Army and the IAF escpecially in the Eastern and Western Himalayas as well as relief and rescue missions.
@@TheHDAviation The ability to transport 45 odd troops as well as underslung haulage is a huge plus as well as functional requirement for the Indian armed forces. There does not seem to be any competitor to Chinnok 47F going by my limited google search research.
Helicopters are so cool! Nuff said.
Agreed!
I like how the rear end makes it look like a really surprised frog! Especially when its in the air. XD
I like that as well 😂
They were nicknamed The Phrog
