This twin engine, tandem rotor, heavy-lift helicopter is a workhorse of the US military since the 1960\u2019s. The Chinook derives its name from the Native American Chinook people and its many variants are used by 16 nations around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">This versatile aircraft is world-renown for its massive lifting capacity via triple external hooks and its large interior cargo space. The main cabin can hold up to 33 fully-equipped troops or 24 stretchers for medical evacuations. In addition to the military, this aircraft is also used for many commercial heavy-lift applications and fire suppression operations across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/CH-47-Chinook-Helicopter-Road-Transport.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2151 size-full\" src=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/CH-47-Chinook-Helicopter-Road-Transport.jpg\" alt=\"CH-47 Chinook Helicopter Road Transport\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">As with any helicopter, if it flies we are going to put it on a truck and transport over the road at some point! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">IMT\u2019s CH-47 Chinook road transport system features two custom fabricated landing gear securement stands. These rugged stands were built with a 4-1 safety margin (rated for 50 tons) and can easily carry a fully intact Chinook at approximately 25,000 lbs. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/20170109_123014-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2153\" src=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/20170109_123014-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"CH-47 Chinook Helicopter Transport\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">Our custom built Heli-Trailers feature a low 18\u201d deck height to handle the height of such a large aircraft. These trailers expand an additional 20\u2019 and are ideal for hauling large helicopters, such as the Chinook, Black Hawks, S-92\u2019s and Pumas. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">The aircraft is loaded facing the rear, so the front of the helicopter sits just over the rear deck of the trailer. The benefit of our securement system is that the rear of the helicopter is elevated approximately 8\u201d higher than the front. Since the nose of the aircraft sits higher, this action brings the nose down and the aircraft is effectively level during transport. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/20170109_123230-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2155\" src=\"\/\/imtbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/20170109_123230-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Chinook helicopter ground transport\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">The height of this particular aircraft is 13\u20196\u201d using our CH-47 Chinook helicopter road transport system, this is legal height in all US states and Canadian provinces.
