11bee Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Gotta watch them curbs, they'll jump out at you :) Interesting comments on this by an Army Blackhawk pilot at bottom of the article. Kinda insinuated that the crew chiefs were "hollywooding". I know that any time I've been in / watching a Blackhawk taxi, the crew chiefs are standing out of their gunner's windows with their heads on a swivel (or one is outside the helo as a ground guide if space is really tight). Never seen the crew chiefs just sitting in the door. Maybe the Navy does it different. Anyways, at least no one got hurt.... http://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/17675/watch-this-mh-60s-shear-off-its-tailwheel-while-taxiing-at-nycs-wall-street-heliport Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zerosystem Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Wonder if a new flight suit was needed after having your legs hanging outside when it happened... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
