This Chinook was all fired up prior to taking off but there was a problem with the rear engine so everything jhad to be shut down and a mechanic called out. He must have fixed the problem as it took off a hour later. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
