This virtual CH-47D is a reproduction of the Boeing Chinook tandem rotor heavy-lift helicopter. Work on the Chinook began by Vertol in 1957 with the first helicopters entering service in 1962. With a tripple hook cargo system, the CH-47D can carry external payloads up to 26,000 pounds. The CH-47D is also ideal for carrying cargo or personel.
This virtual CH-47 from Shergood Aviation has the most advanced systems model of any helicopter in Second Life. Features include:
