Cause the running bunt is about as hard as they can hit the ball.
I mean I like shocking blue and Bananarama, why not both and such.
Not useless, but also not completely relevant. Pictured is a BV-107, which is the civilian version of the CH-46. About half the weight of a hook.
I bought me one of those shirts.
As hypersonichero stated below, this is exactly VRS and due to the high induced velocity of the V-22 rotor system happens at even more extreme combinations of slow forward airspeed and high rate of descent than in standard helicopters. However, with the dual rotor configuration it will almost never happen symmetrically leading to the stated violent roll.

Man you got me. Was ready for some twat waffle to bitch and I downvoted half way through your post and then had to flip it.
My friend, they are both Boeing, and they look similar, but your post is a Ch-47, which is also a six bladed tandem, but is roughly twice the weight, does not fold for ship board stowage, has four wheels instead of three and engines are inside the fuselage, rather than in external pods. CH-47 or "hooks" (Chinook) taxi much better, but fly about the same.
OP is now 55 a flew those wonderful machines. Some older than me. They evacuated Saigon, and one of the birds in that mission was sadly left in Afg. A few left in civilian service, but all US military CH-46 now in the boneyard. Fought fires in the US, were doing CASEVAC in every USMC conflict from the 60's to the 2010's.
Or they live in a state like WA where blue is a landslide and no matter which way you vote it will not change the outcome.
Feel like a dick saying it, but that was my thought too. Dudes trying that during the PFT would be sad.
And then everyone clapped
That guy is choosing a control strategy of aggressive inputs and then counter inputs in roll. Many AFCS do that for you these days. Could use lower amplitude but would have slower response.
Of course they are.
This guy right here. Last dude making sense on the internet
Gilgit airport is no joke. Pakistan AF is not big on flying C-130's up there. Done that route and Skardoo quite a few times.
When I was fortunate enough to get to fly an F-15 out of Edwards, a low level up the Owen's valley was on the list of things to do with one bag of gas.
Their tag line "Bring some home for the wives"
As a younger man I landed helicopters on the back of ships. Mainly carrier, sometimes little decks. Rarely as sporty as this video. But was a rush for certain.
Sock bun for the win every time
Having been on both sides, a neat part is that the basket has to be much bigger or it would not trail right. A small jet basket would hang very low at that speed.
Not a jet guy, but the near two eagles appear to have conformal fuel takes behind and outboard of the engine inlet.
Mine. Not forgotten. /gallery/zyfRYMi
Funny, I like Chewy and agree, BUT I know their CEO. He is an incompetent boob. Think all the goodness was there before he showed up.
Sock buns are so hot
