Don't listen to mental mickey. The Chinook has as just a good safety record as all other helicopters. The only way to get a flight is either to join the raf and get posted to Odiham or if you are a relative of a serving member of the raf at odiham they have family flying days. If you see one at an airshow you could be cheeky and ask just depends on whether the crew turns a blind eye to regs.

Chinook Helicopter Rides

The Chinook helicopter is a military craft so I somehow doubt the RAF (or any of the other military forces across the world who operate versions of this helicopter) would be willing to give you a ride in one unless you joined up. There are civilian versions of the craft, but I don't think any are in general use for commercial passenger or pleasure purposes. I don't think there is any such thing. Besides, the Chinook doesn't have a particually good safety record in any case. You'd be better off sticking to a helicopter with a single rotor. They're safer, and you can charter these things all across the UK, but nothing as large as a Chinook.

Delhi may be the capital city of India also known as New Delhi and domestically Dilli. Delhi is the main arrival stage for international tourists and you can be among that tourist; have a look with hotelbye . Among the areas most visited in Delhi is the Bahai Temple. This Temple is based atop the Kalkaji Hill and it's also called "The Lotus Temple" due to its special lotus formed design in marble. Bahai Temple was built-in 1987 by the followers of Bahai faith. The Temple signifies the love and equality of religions. Yet another place to go to in Delhi is Gandhi Smiriti. In that museum are displayed: images, sculptures, paintings, frescos, inscriptions on rocks and relics related to the years Mahatma Gandhi spent here. The meagre personal ramifications of Gandhiji too are cautiously preserved.

Height has nothing to do with synchronising the rotor. The rear rotor is higher so it can be tilted forwards without slicing the body. The front rotor naturally has nothing to hit. The rotors are driven through a gearbox and are set up to "miss" each other. As each rotor head cannot turn independently they cannot smash into each other unless a drive shaft breaks or the gearbox blows.
