For those who don't know, he started the APU that is used to actually start the two main engines. That sound is the APU getting turned on, not the actual two engines. I was a 15T for 6 years.
Whats really hilarious is by the time they figure out how to fly the things left behind they will need maintenance and will break down super quick without it. Blackhawks are super intricate machines, the military doesn't have like 20 member crews servicing helicopters for no reason.
they never attacked us to begin with, it was an blatant lie, and they haven't attacked anyone since. and if we left them military equipment, it's small change compared to destroying and occupying their country for 2 decades.

I don't know too much about choppers. Starting it is probably easy when you just know where to look. Flying it will probably need a bit more "finesse" and feeling the aircraft. Now, many fixed wings are quite easy both to start and to take off and fly if you just do your homework. Harder to land, but that is usually not so hard either. Fighters are designed to be easy to fly. Airliners are quite easy too with a little bit of setup. Yes, I've actually demonstrated this in 500$/hour simulator (Professional) just to prove this point. But chopper?? Well, maybe... You need to fly a little bit more, I think. That is out of my ballpark.
And than after all of that to top it off you have to land the damn death machine lol… so safe to say that I doubt it that they are coming out of there alive

They had hundreds of Aghan pilots anyway... I believe the US trained a bunch of them on their gear too. Anyway, if only twinkle toes that made the 'art of the deal' directly with the Taliban handing them power had of started to withdraw equipment before leaving office with a few months on the clock.
I’ve been flying helicopters for thirty years. Starting helicopters is easy. (The entire start procedure is in the engine starting checklists.) It’s flying helicopters that’s hard, especially when it comes to the landing part. Btw, nice APU start in this video.
Yeah, I’m an air traffic controller in the army, I don’t know much about starting/flying aircraft, but I do know that if the content of the video was a close guarded secret, it wouldn’t be here 😂 so many keyboard warriors on here
You shouldn't be allowed to vote if you think the sitting president is solely responsible for the cluster fuck that was left for him. Afghanistan started 20 years before Biden was even in office. Read a book. Or read a newspaper. Doesn't even matter which one. Just stop learning from the internet. It's so sad. Actually read some history books. Check out post wwI Germany and the rise of nationalism and hopefully you can connect some dots before you become another pathetic casualty of idiocracy
OH NO, A BUNCH OF OUTDATED EQUIPMENT! What will we ever use to stop our OWN DESIGNS, we couldn't possibly know their weaknesses! However shall we prevail against an army that can't replace parts of things we made 50 years ago? The horror!
Trump freed 5,000 Taliban prisoners, (in a deal between Pompeo and the Taliban to buy time for withdrawl) withdrew most US military forces from Afghanistan, and left all of that equipment there like 8 months prior to leaving Kabul. You can thank Joey B all you want but it started with the previous administration. Also, the taliban ain't gonna do much with what was left behind. Not too worried about it. Hell, Iran could wipe them off the map before they even get to level 2 with how to fly a chopper.
@@user-nc7iq1ok2zI don’t understand the false narrative you’re trying to push. I’d love an adult debate though. Yes the taliban regained control of Afghanistan, simply because we let it happen. We left, no one was “forced” out. In every single way the US dominated that country, yes a lot of Americans died for it, it’s war. If you compare our numbers vs theirs though we won by sheer numbers. Our military was absolutely there for the wrong reasons and we overstayed our not so welcome visit, this I agree, countless people on both sides died in theater but to say we “lost” is not correct sir/maam. It’s hard to fight for a country that won’t fight for itself. There is a huge amount of ANA that stepped up and that we trained but the majority of the country was led by fear and intimidation by the taliban, many of the afghan soldiers the US trained ended up at some point flipping sides, going back to fight us alongside the taliban. It’s very hard to unpack 20+ years of war in a CZcams comment but let’s start somewhere. What I explained is what I understand to be true, I have an open mind though & if you have contradicting evidence that disproves the point I made from liable sources, I will happily admit my knowledge is wrong.
@@user-nc7iq1ok2z no, we left on our own terms. The Afghan government didn't want us to leave, they knew they stood no chance against the Taliban on their own
@@yomama629 no one supported puppet afghan government, everyone supported talibans and talibans kicked you out, there was no difference between American and puppet afghan govt, both destroyed.
@@yomama629As I recall, the government complained about us constantly, but I may be thinking about Iraq. Maybe both. I DO know that Afghan army just wouldn't fight. It was plagued with people who couldn't be trusted. They were Afghan Army but would turn around and attack our guys. What a dumpster fire of a country. Some places around the world just aren't interested in having a better country for their children. You just cannot always export that.
@@Kaarna5 Yes, it did. If you've ever played Arma 3 you'd know there are mods. I used the AH-64D Official Project, you can find it on the steam workshop.
The Taliban already know how to fly them. They retained a number of Afgan Security Forces pilots and ground crews we trained to be able to fly them. Its literally the only reason they haven't crashed every Blackhawk we left there.
A total of 73 aircraft, nearly 100 vehicles and other equipment were abandoned by US troops as they pulled out ahead of the 31 August deadline. But US Central Command head Gen Kenneth McKenzie said it had all been rendered impossible to use. "Those aircraft will never fly again," he said.
"Resourcefulness is what the Ukrainian army is using to successfully defeat the Russian army. What makes you think that anyone who has access to these kinds of war materials can't do the same. I see here on YT every day how a bunch of backward looking guys in a "shop" that is our of the Dark Ages fix motors and other things. We Americans just junk our broken things as it's too expensive to repair them. They end up in junk yards that are bought as scrap by foreign countries. From there the scrap is turned into usable things. If you have 4 aircraft that don't work, you cannibalize one or two to make one fly.
Having working with heavy machinery for a while now I feel like that stuff shouldn't be that hard to break, especially with the tools they had on hand.
Blackhawks compared to a Huey are easier move power levels to flight and pool pull pitch a little left pedal but not to much ease the collective forward just a touch little more power little more left pedal

Actually ,,, that withdrawal fiasco was pretty much all from the genius of Tzar Trumpy ... signed a deal with Taliban Jan 2020 that set May 1 2021 as date of withdrawal .

@@John.S.PattonWELL I can tell you why the US left OR maybe should I say escaped in the dead of the night (without even informing the new Afghan base commander/incharge), BECAUSE the war was going no where for the past 20 years, and those Americans already knew about it a decade ago (in the late 2000s) that they are fighting a losing battle on someone else's turf who's native to it (and have history of warring and militancy) BUT due to immense pressure from the White House, Pentagon AND the international community, the US & the Allied NATO Forces were forced to stay there as long as they could and kept continuing the war BUT TO NO AVAIL, and eventually they lost their will/spirit to fight and retreated (just like they did in Vietnam) AND NOW their superiors are giving the same response on every goblal platform that: "WE DIDN'T LOSE THE WAR, WE JUST LEFT TOO EARLY", But anyway whatever cooked-up story your biased rightwing media tells relating "The War in Afghanistan" to help you sleep at night.
I was a CH-46 mechanic in the USMC. We had a trainee in our unit for a while, and our Gunny told him to go down to Maintenance Control and get keys to one of the aircraft. This went on for an hour. Funny Sh!t
Ha ha. That's a common joke to play on newbies in every branch of the military. I worked on F-16s in the USAF, and we played the same tricks on newbies. Another one is telling a newbie to get the "jet wash" (or "prop wash" for prop aircraft). Too much fun!
I was a Navy Corpsman. We did our version of that to newbies too. Was quite the scavenger hunt around a hospital for literally nothing that existed. lol.
One of our airmen got sent out to collect "exhaust -samples" after one of our H60's got back for the night. They had him attempting to capture a trash bag full of exhaust let off up on a ladder lmao i was dead. funniest one i think i ever heard of.
Chill boys. He just started the APU. Still has to spool up the main engine, turn on the generator(s) align EGIs and a slew of other systems before even trying to fly (or at least fly in a controlled state)
Meh, not that hard on uh-60ls, you turn on battery and generators, apu control wait for lights then fiel selectors to whatever you want if you just want to fly then press the small start buttons while turning on your servo booster setting your stabilator stuff if its the case and you are basically ready to go
Hahaha mean while the warrant officer or officer out there sipping his coffee is like "pvt snuffy has been gone for a minute now" *steals the black hawk*
Ya okay, easy to say from someone who never did a damn thing but play call of duty. Nobody kicked our “arse”, any and every time there was any type of TIC or engagement even at the smallest squad level, our Soldiers and Marines completely destroyed anyone that chose to take up arms against us. With strict ROE and horrible political reigns being pulled, preventing Soldiers and Marines from doing what they’re there to do, there IS no winning. And any insurgency does not need to “win”, they simply just have to not lose. So if hiding behind women and children and throwing down your weapons after a chicken shit ambush on a convoy, knowing Americans are not allowed to light up unarmed “civilians” is “kicking our arse”, then they can have that “win” 😂. Everybody’s an expert I guess..

And here's someone looking for something to be worried about
Just to make it a little worse: if you actually watch you can see the buttons are labelled. So they'd be able to figure it out anyway 😰
@@martijnp Right? Sick OPSEC boot.
They had hundreds of Aghan pilots anyway... I believe the US trained a bunch of them on their gear too.
Anyway, if only twinkle toes that made the 'art of the deal' directly with the Taliban handing them power had of started to withdraw equipment before leaving office with a few months on the clock.
Personally I wanna see the crash videos
bruh that’s not the full start up
Thanks, bought my first blackhawk yesterday! Just couldnt figure out how to turn it on to go to the store.. manual sucked.
Best part is the Taliban won the war without knowing any of these gadgets.
Also, Tali-tubbies, if you could record yourselves trying to fly them, that'd be great, thaaaanks.
I’ve been flying helicopters for thirty years. Starting helicopters is easy. (The entire start procedure is in the engine starting checklists.) It’s flying helicopters that’s hard, especially when it comes to the landing part. Btw, nice APU start in this video.
Show them how to start them, by all means. Short flights, I suspect.
@@geofffleming12they’re used to crashing em on purpose anyway
Yeah, I’m an air traffic controller in the army, I don’t know much about starting/flying aircraft, but I do know that if the content of the video was a close guarded secret, it wouldn’t be here 😂 so many keyboard warriors on here

You can thank Joey B for that.... the man sure can give away money and alot of stuff that doesn't belong to him.
You shouldn't be allowed to vote if you think the sitting president is solely responsible for the cluster fuck that was left for him. Afghanistan started 20 years before Biden was even in office. Read a book. Or read a newspaper. Doesn't even matter which one. Just stop learning from the internet. It's so sad. Actually read some history books. Check out post wwI Germany and the rise of nationalism and hopefully you can connect some dots before you become another pathetic casualty of idiocracy
You need to educate yourself
OH NO, A BUNCH OF OUTDATED EQUIPMENT! What will we ever use to stop our OWN DESIGNS, we couldn't possibly know their weaknesses! However shall we prevail against an army that can't replace parts of things we made 50 years ago? The horror!
Trump freed 5,000 Taliban prisoners, (in a deal between Pompeo and the Taliban to buy time for withdrawl) withdrew most US military forces from Afghanistan, and left all of that equipment there like 8 months prior to leaving Kabul. You can thank Joey B all you want but it started with the previous administration. Also, the taliban ain't gonna do much with what was left behind. Not too worried about it. Hell, Iran could wipe them off the map before they even get to level 2 with how to fly a chopper.
WHAT! NO WAY! Starting an LUH is like starting a blender.
When I left Afghanistan it had a helicopter pilot academy. They already know how to fly them.
You left Afghanistan???
No, they kicked you out in humiliation 🤣
@@user-nc7iq1ok2zI don’t understand the false narrative you’re trying to push. I’d love an adult debate though. Yes the taliban regained control of Afghanistan, simply because we let it happen. We left, no one was “forced” out. In every single way the US dominated that country, yes a lot of Americans died for it, it’s war. If you compare our numbers vs theirs though we won by sheer numbers. Our military was absolutely there for the wrong reasons and we overstayed our not so welcome visit, this I agree, countless people on both sides died in theater but to say we “lost” is not correct sir/maam. It’s hard to fight for a country that won’t fight for itself. There is a huge amount of ANA that stepped up and that we trained but the majority of the country was led by fear and intimidation by the taliban, many of the afghan soldiers the US trained ended up at some point flipping sides, going back to fight us alongside the taliban. It’s very hard to unpack 20+ years of war in a CZcams comment but let’s start somewhere. What I explained is what I understand to be true, I have an open mind though & if you have contradicting evidence that disproves the point I made from liable sources, I will happily admit my knowledge is wrong.
@@user-nc7iq1ok2z no, we left on our own terms. The Afghan government didn't want us to leave, they knew they stood no chance against the Taliban on their own
@@yomama629 no one supported puppet afghan government, everyone supported talibans and talibans kicked you out, there was no difference between American and puppet afghan govt, both destroyed.
@@yomama629As I recall, the government complained about us constantly, but I may be thinking about Iraq. Maybe both. I DO know that Afghan army just wouldn't fight. It was plagued with people who couldn't be trusted. They were Afghan Army but would turn around and attack our guys. What a dumpster fire of a country. Some places around the world just aren't interested in having a better country for their children. You just cannot always export that.

Taliban: This, good. Easy. Only click this. Click one. That, not easy. Click, click, click. Not easy. This, easy, point, click one. That, Boom!
The Taliban already know how to fly them. They retained a number of Afgan Security Forces pilots and ground crews we trained to be able to fly them. Its literally the only reason they haven't crashed every Blackhawk we left there.
A total of 73 aircraft, nearly 100 vehicles and other equipment were abandoned by US troops as they pulled out ahead of the 31 August deadline.
But US Central Command head Gen Kenneth McKenzie said it had all been rendered impossible to use.
"Those aircraft will never fly again," he said.
Not US troops, Joe Biden. Why the arbitrary deadline? China? Biden and Obama are traitors.
"Resourcefulness is what the Ukrainian army is using to successfully defeat the Russian army. What makes you think that anyone who has access to these kinds of war materials can't do the same.
I see here on YT every day how a bunch of backward looking guys in a "shop" that is our of the Dark Ages fix motors and other things. We Americans just junk our broken things as it's too expensive to repair them. They end up in junk yards that are bought as scrap by foreign countries. From there the scrap is turned into usable things. If you have 4 aircraft that don't work, you cannibalize one or two to make one fly.
Thanks Biden....
Not abandoned. Left there on purpose. Although I doubt that Biden is capable of any sophisticated thoughts beyond eating ice cream
Having working with heavy machinery for a while now I feel like that stuff shouldn't be that hard to break, especially with the tools they had on hand.
Don't worry, the CIA is probably already teaching them.

It’s nice to see the Blackhawks are maintained exactly like the Hueys were 60 years ago😂
Theyve been pretty public about how its not very utilitarian or even logical to operate a fleet of equiptment that constantly breaks, over consumes ridiculous anounts of fuel, and is covered in parts that need to be swapped regularly (that is theyre designed to further subsidize the defense companies)

They already know. We taught them, then left the choppers in Afghanistan. Dementia Joe’s fire sale.
I believe it was the previous president who invited the Taliban to a meeting and offered to give them back the country--without informing the legitimate government--in exchange for...nothing. Then he told them when we would leave--in case they wanted to prepare some IEDs.
Actually ,,, that withdrawal fiasco was pretty much all from the genius of Tzar Trumpy ... signed a deal with Taliban Jan 2020 that set May 1 2021 as date of withdrawal . In the deal Trumpy counted on the word///good-will of the Taliban that they would protect the evacuating parties from al-Qaeda. Trumpy's Generals told him that the Taliban was WORKING WITH al-Qaeda !!! ... but ,,, cause Trumpy knows more than ALL the generals he just went with the Taliban's word . So he dropped this mess in Bidens lap three months before the withdrawal date . I'm sure that Biden et. al. knew that this was gonna be a kluster-puck but what could he ... bring back a force of safe numbers and capability ,,, endure the wrath of the world for not withdrawing ,,, try again in 5 or 8 years ??? ... so they did the best they could with Trumpy's. """ failure-to-plan """ ... I mean ... """ plan-to-fail """ ...

Ya okay, easy to say from someone who never did a damn thing but play call of duty. Nobody kicked our “arse”, any and every time there was any type of TIC or engagement even at the smallest squad level, our Soldiers and Marines completely destroyed anyone that chose to take up arms against us. With strict ROE and horrible political reigns being pulled, preventing Soldiers and Marines from doing what they’re there to do, there IS no winning. And any insurgency does not need to “win”, they simply just have to not lose. So if hiding behind women and children and throwing down your weapons after a chicken shit ambush on a convoy, knowing Americans are not allowed to light up unarmed “civilians” is “kicking our arse”, then they can have that “win” 😂. Everybody’s an expert I guess..
