It takes a heck of a lot more power for a Helo to hover, rather than moving in fresh air. You get turbulent columns of air being forced down from the blades, and the air cycles back up in another ring outside this colum. When a Helo just sits in the same place in the sky, this cycle keeps accelerating, resulting in faster moving air going into the blades. This means the power has to keep being turned up for the Helo to keep hovering. This is because the helo is now "paddling upstream" against its own power. If it was already stressed, it'd end up on the deck, no flat deck = wrecked helo.

This is why most helo's tend to try to keep some motion going, getting into fresh air. The lower to the ground you are, the greater the affect.

Here is a clearer picture of the tail rotor.

So who lead the raid, Jack Bauer, Jason Borune or Chuck Norris?

Overheard on the laser-window microphone...

Osamas' voice: "I need a living room full of Seals like I need a hole in my head".....

in regards to the hover over the compound. now why would after extensive training on a mock up countless times not think about that(lack of hover fresh air) or take corrective measures.


my belief is NVG's caused the problem due to depth perception. but then WTF do i know. all i know is all of our white hatted cowboys made it out alive safely ,completed their mission 110%, despite using "GERONIMO" as a code word and taking heat for it. in case ya didnt know GERONIMO was NOT ONE IOTA DIFFERENT THAN OSAMA BIN BUN FEEKER! geronimo was a lying thieving murderer also. and he was killing mexicans WAYYYYYYYY before whitey started hanging around the southwest.


now the question of the day???????????????????


what caliber round took OSAMA BIN BUN FEEKER OUT?


a 7.62 X 51-.308?

a 5.56 X 45- or a .223?

a 7.62 X 39-ak?

.44 mag/.357?

a 9mm?

a .22?

a .177 pellet?


lazar(laser) beam death ray?


WE WANNA KNOW!



gawd we hope it was a .308...............maximum anal cranial intrusion!

Just read this.........

"........About 10 days before the raid, Obama was briefed on the plan. It included keeping two backup helicopters just outside Pakistani airspace in case something went wrong. But Obama felt that was risky. If the SEALs needed help, they couldn't afford to wait for backup.

He said the operation needed a plan in case the SEALs had to fight their way out. So two Chinooks were sent into Pakistani airspace, loaded with backup teams, just in case. One of those Chinooks landed in the compound after the Black Hawk became inoperable.

The raiders scrambled aboard the remaining Black Hawk and a Chinook, bin Laden's body with them, and flew to the USS Carl Vinson in the North Arabian Sea. The ground operation had taken about 40 minutes."

I was hoping for .50!

This was a major F-up in the mission. Chopper goes down due to pilot error, and they failed to destroy the tail section...

Pictures of the compound don't look that large. And well they fly 2 choppers for a reason no? And the pilot and copilot walked away, so it was a good landing.

I have doubts the seal teams get new grads to chopper them around. So prolly a highly experienced chopper pilot that just had some bad luck in a tough mission.

Yep, I'm sure it was an experienced pilot, just wondering why they didn't blow that tail section before leaving.

Maybe they didn't have time or they didn't feel it was safe to climb over the wall.
I wouldn't worry about it. Many Black Hawks have gone down in unfriendly areas over the years.

Also... It's nothing a 2,000 lb "JDAM" wouldn't fix ;)

It's not an ordinary blackhawk, that's the point...

Because Murphy flies in on SEAL raids too?

Honestly, i don't see how a thermite grenade or standard HE grenade could destroy all that anyway.

We lost an F-117 during the Kosovo operation, in combat operations, stuff happens.

How many top secret aircraft have fallen into enemy hands over the years?

The Seals did the best they could. Regrettably once you have equipment like this in the field it really is on a matter of time before the enemy gets their hands on it.

Here's an article that written by someone who knows something about a/c and not over sensationalized.
