Nice, I thought it looked like a smaller CH53 until I realized it’s actually quite a bit bigger. I was in the US Marine Corps. Got to fly in some very cool machines. In 2007 we were the helo platoon for the 22nd MEU on the USS Bataan, so we got to train fast roping out of them, it was an awesome experience.
I got to fly in CH53 several times, they felt so big, so this thing must be yuge! They’re amazing gigantic machines. Also flew in Osprey, CH46, C130. Looks like we finally phased out the 46’s though.
I just wish I took more time to capture it all with my memory, or even record as much of it as I could.
