dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 Heavylift helos are the lifeblood of the military forces in Afghanistan. They are used for all manner of tasks in a dangerous and unforgiving environment. Their crews fly through all manner of adversaties to do their work and the aircraft are pushed to their design limits. Here are just a few of these unsung heroes. Westland Merlin Sikorsky MH53E Westland/Aerospatiale Puma Sikorsky UH60 Boeing Chinook HC1 Dedicated to the transport helicopter pilots who risk their lives daily. Thanks for viewing.
