- Video from Samuel Roland Films highlighting Billings Flying Service with their Kawak designed and manufactured Chinook CH-47D aerial firefighting system. Billings has been on contract all 2018 season fighting wildfires and proving out the system with great success! Congratulations Billings and thank you for choosing Kawak as your partner in this great venture!

My hats off to all of you involved in doing this. I know it's very dangerous but you guys are the best. Thank you!
One of these is helping putting out one of the lighting complex fires in the Bay area. Thank you Kawak and thank you to all the brave firefighters!!
we had two in the area for that fire. it was crazy that there were over 200 separate fires at 1 point the lightning was absolutely crazy.
That’s the best water bomber..the water distribution is well spreads with the down pours caused by both rotor..the best chopper for the job n for me it’s the best looking chopper 👍🏼🇳🇴
Thanks, team! Have not seen you, yet, in San Diego County (CA), but when I do I'll remember your vision and passion for a great bird! (Of course, I am prejudiced: spent quite a few hours riding inside U. S. Army Chinooks in Vietnam. )
Good job
The Billing services Chinook helicopter comes from Hemet-Ryan airport whenever there’s a fire located in Hemet Southern California I see most of the time now fly over my house.
You folks have done an amazing job with the Robertson Draw fire (Red Lodge, MT). Thank you so very much!!!
We need this chopper in Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Ok...
You can order to India...
India in producing lots
Australia need you
Agreed but first off how you gonna get it there? I mean they built this thing for a reason because of its need wherever it is. Would kinda suck if you bought this aircraft and fire breaks out and they say call in the chopper oh wait the chopper is in australia. Then wtf are we paying for it?
Seen one while in CO a while back. Beautiful.
that chopper was at Hemet Ryan last week thing looks bad ass
Max Mason I live near Hemet Ryan Airport every time there’s a fire I always see that helicopter lift off from the base it’s super Bad ass and it’s a cool sight.
What a beast
The right heli to make out the fire
Awesome machine!
Ch-47’s are my life
Very impressive
Were out here at Mesa Falcon Field for a while, just sent to Show Low AZ yesterday.
California needs one
Wow...nice
I thought that the Sky Crane was very effective in firefighting, but this is massive, i wish greek goverment used something like that in firefighting. It would fit perfectly the landscape and prevent disasters like this summer
Hi? I'm a member of Korea Forest Service.
We are very interest in this nice craft, so i want get in touch with your team
How neat! I’ve been in this exact aircraft! They’ve got little R2-D2 and Chewbacca figures in the cockpit lol
that snorkel speed is crazy, the s70 fire-hawk only has a 1000 gallon tank and that takes 60 seconds to fill up. Somehow you guys have managed to double to capacity but at the same time cutting the load speed in half.
The difference is the power source between the two. The s70 Firehawk is utilizing a 7.5hp 400Hz electric motor and pumping up a 6" hose. The Chinook utilizes a 50hp hydraulic power supply to a 10" hydraulic driven refill pump.
Cool Chopper, bad drumpf hat on that one guy though... should have edited him out.
Make a CH-47 in a guise similar to Thunderbird 2, with multi purpose detachable pods for various operations scenarios.
Seems a logical progression for a proven product!
What do you think?
Quero aprender com essa empresa maravilhosas! Abraços...
El dia 10 mayo 2019 vi un helicoptero de esos en puerto de San Atonio, Chile . Sera para apollar los incendios forestales?,en nuestro pais.......
I would love to pilot a Chinook helicopter 🚁
With a full tank OK but what of a half filled tank? Even with bafles I wonder if the water sloshing around has any balance effect or causes any metal structural stresses. A C130 crashed recently in Australia. I saw one had crashed in California some time ago where both wings tore off due to structural failure.
These tanks are designed to be partially full at all times. lots of structural analysis and sign off from structural DER's prior to FAA certification. Baffles are designed to gradually move water horizontally but can empty from the vertical orientation in an emergency in just over 3 seconds. Cheers!
Remember this 3 piolets died in.nsw🙏
This will be perfect for ozzy summer's much superior to what we're using
Amazon need this! Please do something helpful
Sorry if this is naive, but could someone tell me if is this the similar to Boeing's ch-47D? Thanks in advance.
This is a CH-47D aircraft that has been modified.
He's walking slowly to a firefighting helicopter😂
Not a chinook...that's a BV-234. The CH-47 Chinook is the US Army designation for a BV-234. Semantics, sure, but correct.
Incorrect, all of Billing’s chinooks are ch-47 D’s.
The only BV-234’s belong to another company.
Semantics but actually correct...
The Erickson skycrane is more expensive but more versatile
Australia has entered the chat.
Because China started using the Erickson Skycrane helicopters before the US started using them on Wildfires as well.
Indian airforce now using chinook
❤️
Name of the video should have been how to build a water tank
Name of music in the beginning please. Thanks
Alltogether about 10 sec in action. Not what I came for when reading the title 👎
If it was up to me I'd have 10 Chinook fire fighting helicopters on the tarmac in El Dorado county call the team The Three musketeers. Come on leaders of the eldorado county it's only 75 million I'd rather be prepared instead of scared
Maybe without many on the tarmac we can get home insurance again that's affordable.

@@olafurmikaelsson4794 ??? You are not the brightest bulb in the box !!!
@@kennethschultz6465 The stripes are for human visual recognition, not for birds, like Olafur said. Try to be less egotistcal and stop calling people names. Google it, moron.

What is a gallon?
3,785 liter is 1 gallon in the USA. :)
People from USA usually trink 1 gallon Coca Cola for breakfast. That's why there are so many muscular people.
2500 US Gallons or 9464 liters
so basically MAFFS for a heli
