      The Army put glass over gauges long ago . By the time I flew 47's the Army figured out to put glass over all the instruments. Turns out when pilots saw a reading they didn't like ,, they would bend the needle to the range they could live with. So Boom , put glass over it to keep the fingers off.

      I graduated from AIT at Ft. Eustis Virginia in 1982 as a 67U10 Chinook flight mechanic, I believe it's a different code now. And became a crew chief on these under rated, under appreciated and unloved bad boy of helicopters. This is a amazing machine, when you tell people it's the fastest combat helicopter we have most roll their eyes or call you a liar, there are a lot of enemy soldiers not with us anymore by under estimating these ladies. I read a article while searching google with the upgrades their installing now they might be a hundred years old before they get put out to pasture.

      All the enlisted Aviation MOS codes (67 & 68) were changed to 15 series to match up with the aviation officer Q codes sometime in the early-2000s. I was only a 15U30F for a few years before I got out, spent over a decade as a 67U10-30. Also, some of the avionics repairer MOS's switched over to ordnance CMF. There certainly have been upgrades to the old gal, and still more to come. You know whats still the the same? Leaking rotor head seals...

    I thought Army Helicopters arent authorized to land on ships or over water because they arent salt and seawater treated?

      Dustin Galliazzo their side fuel tanks act as floats, the aircraft will only submerge 30 inches max.
      The entire airframe below is treated with Corban CIC and there are vent plugs. Station 120 just behind the cockpit is a water tight bulkhead.
      The 160th SOAR drops the MH-47G in the water ramp down and they drive fast boats right up into them and haul arse.👍😎

    Only time I got sea sick in anything boat plane whatever. I was a crew chief on a OH-58 but when I flew in a as we used to call them shit hooks I'd get sick. They not only pitch up and down but they yaw side to side at the same time. I was ok if I could look outside but if not well it sucked. Never heard anything about not being out on the ocean but like everything to much of a good thing is bad and yes being on a ocean is a good thing at least from the beach.

      @@swegmastur614 I spent 13 years building and working on the CH-47F along with CH-147F, MH-47G and UK-Mk6 Chinooks and got to fly on UK-Mk6 N713UK a Chinook I built in 2015. The newer Chinooks are so well balanced in their drive trains that they are smooth as glass. I was very impressed as you could hold a cup of coffee in flight and not spill a drop, we flew from the factory in Ridley Park Pa down to Summit Airport in Delaware. On the way we did some high speed climbs and at Summit a ramp down just off the deck 360 turn and returned to the Ridley Park factory where we did a high speed flyover of the factory for a photo op and then landed. There were 20 of us and 4 crew on the flight.
      The CH-47F is now being built in a Block II configuration.
