The great thing of picturing deployed aircraft is often that very nice weathering and dust over the airframes, like this worn Chinook in Kandahar. This Chinook was once delivered to the US Army as CH-47C 85-24736. The helicopter was accepted on 9 August 1985). It was converted to CH-47D 92-00281 and redelivered on 15 December 1992. The helicopter was withdrawn from use in 2015 and eventually dumped at Middletown-Sum with Summit Aviation (DE).
