    So you're shipping out before Christmas and want to see your family and just happen have a CH-47, well I guess you just stop by and hang out for a bit.

    I guess you'll believe me next time I say I saw black helicopters flying around the house. Eddie notice the lack of any distinguishable markings on the craft. Coolest early Christmas gift

    This is the G model, range is dependent on load, 650nm is about as far as you want to push the crew. Of course working in the high altitudes of the Kush lessens the load and range. Regardless a badass with no real competition. The most impressive thing to see was how fast he cleared out. Took about a 3 minutes from start up to be out of sight.
