The Boeing Model 234 was the commercial derivative of the CH-47 family of Chinooks.
CH-234 гражданская версия Чинука, может перевозить на внешней подвеске грузы массой до 12700 кг.
I was lucky enough to meet Dave and see him in action on a job out near Cougar Dam in 2008. He was a surgeon with that 234! Only met him briefly but he was such a nice guy. So very sorry for your loss.

Great video I was totally thrilled to watch it 😄
Dave flew many of the logs I cut and is without doubt THE best Chinook driver of All Time. Have worked with him from Northern California Redwoods(PL wood) to Alaska and most stops in between.
Condolences in regards to your loss..........................
i dunno.. Dale Weir and Gerry Koznick were joystick geniuses ... dale would be halfway back down the mountain after punching off a turn before the last log hit hit the landing. i don't of any other shithook pilot that had more hours under his belt than Gerry did...
Amazing footage, and outstanding Pilot skills, very brave. I just Subscribed 😎👍
Magnificent video!
After the grapples , it’s “tag on tag on tag on TAG, with a kicker to your 3:00 with 3 tags”. Just to get your weight!
This guy Dave is freaken Awsome!!!
You are a REAL PRO GOOD LUCK.
Absolutely amazing.
Hugh.
Very good video, complicated flight. Saludos
Incredible
Helicopter kills your margin.
Are they doing old growth cedar?
great video!!
Not to mention if it is an isolated stand surrounded by land owners who do not like easements!!
Yes but how much to build a road to that spot ?
Depending on how long it takes. $25/hr x 3 weeks... My dad is a road builder he would know, ive built some road as well but im not as fast. He could build 3km in a day and still make it look like it took a month
@matthiashaenni This is a huge machine to do logging with! I thought it was really only done with Huey's, K-Max's and, in the past, Huskies. I wonder if it is still profitable with such a fuel guzzling monster?

I have this image of a snake that crawled inside that tree for a nap, waking up and being 400 feet in the air. It's eyes wide and thinking "holy shit, WTF is going on?"
who is the pilot?
The way i see it, the jet fuel for this pig would cost more than what the wood is worth. It may be less damaging, but when you slash a cutblock with a buncher and grapple skidder, an a processor, you get alot of wood an alot of money. Sure diesel for thos machines is expensive but still less than jetfuel an you get more wood.
What if the cable gets stuck... O_o
You punch the line off and send someone in to retrieve it

wow
chinhook cost a fortune to run . loggin cant pay that much ????
+Sir Smith trees are pretty expensive, $400-$1000 a piece for low quality ones. A lot more for good quality
Obviously still is economical

how can flying a chinhook be more planet friendly than chopping a healthy tree down? lol,not that I care.
Please, stop cutting trees down, it's bad. :(
chris murphy In the US we grow more trees than we cut down. =)
***** I must've learned that trees get cut down because they're too old to live and we need wood anyway. It's a good thing that they plant new ones after chopping it down.
They overdo it in the Rainforest, that's what makes us feel sad.
chris murphy Just to make your day im going out right now and cut down 3 tree's and burn them for firewood.

S 64 is better
No the bv234 external payload is more than the s64
