Boeing Chinook RAF Odiham Christmas Card by Alex Hamilton GAvA
A derivative of the Boeing CH-47, the Chinook HC2 has been seen in UK skies for many years. Indeed, outside of the United States, the RAF is the largest operator of the Chinook. With its various upgrades, it has served all UK armed services with heavy-lift supply and support, troop transport, humanitarian missions, emergency operating theatre and even extraction of civilians from war zones.
