Oldest Flying Chinook Helicopter Facing Retirement After Decades Of Flight
Citat:The oldest flying Chinook helicopter in the world is in Stockton, and it has earned a well-deserved retirement.
The California National Guard is getting a brand-new fleet of Chinook helicopters they say will help them save lives.
Capt. Ben Bowman of the California National Guard in Stockton gave us a guide on a tour of the old, then the new.
First, a Chinook CH-47D…that’s historic. It’s logged more than 10,000 flight hours, including missions in Vietnam, Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan. One of the 47Ds being replaced is the oldest flying Chinook in the world.
