My first air show... I think I was about six or seven. It's the helicopter my uncle flew in for the show. If you zoom in and look at the cockpit the guy on white, my uncle, guy in red my dad,... I can't be seen.

That particular helicopter has some kind of modifications that's different from a regular Chinook. I don't remember what, just remember my roommate pointing a couple of things out that said it was unique. Picture was taken how about 77.

I assume he was pointing out the lack of hydraulics leaks? :LOL: Seriously, my buddy flew one and said if it wasn't leakin' you were crashin'.
 
Prayers were answered. God Bless the little guy. I hope everyone else is feeling fine.
He had a little fever all night. I got up about 4:30 and we slept in the recliner together til about 7:30. He isn’t plagued with the trots anymore so that’s a blessing. He is drinking well and eating. He isn’t 100% but worlds better.

Would not be surprised if that air frame was still flying.....
 
Aren't bridge heights and car heights standardized? Or at least marked?
Most places are, and it's up to the dispatcher to route high clearance traffic away from low clearance overheads. The engineer actually
doesn't control which route they take.

The easy answer is evidently not. My guess is this was a diversion for some reason. But maybe not,
Someone screwed up big time. Either the consist was screwed up or the road master is looking for a job.
