Just saw two stealthy chinooks heading north towards Denver

Probably just a normal flight to see if they set of any radars w/ the people.

o please

I got to fly in a chinook before. It was really cool. The flight crew opened the floor board and we got to look down like 20,000 feet. It's an amazing machine and capable of a lot of work!

Chinooks are not "stealthy" They are flying elephants. The two things in the front are for refueling not guns.

There has been an increase in helo traffic from south to north in Colorado in the past 2 months... HUGE increase.

[link to www.fortcampbellcourier.com]

I've noticed this too. I live on the southern end of Denver and have noticed the helicopters are a lot more frequent recently and even more frequent at night.

Check my courier link.

Been pairs of them flying north the past week here in NW Kansas.. National guard?

Sodbust

Flew in one myself, very comfortable ride for a helo.
The Warrant Officers who were piloting kept rolling empty beer cans out of the cockpit into the cabin area.

We live near both Buckley AFB and DIA and the helicopter traffic has been through the roof. I'm very used to aircraft noises of all kinds and there's always a plane coming in/leaving the airport. I posted a couple of months ago that I saw two chinooks flying directly overhead going west. They were so low that they shook the entire house. I'm not reading much into it since Ft. Carson, Buckley and the AF Academy in the Springs are close, but it's enough that I've noticed.

I've also been seeing unusual things in the southern sky in the afternoons between around 2 and 5. There will be a very bright flash of light suddenly where I hadn't noticed a plane before. The flash is so bright that I can't see what the aircraft is and once the flash subsides the aircraft is gone. No noise and I've never been able to spot one a second time after the flash. Probably sun glare playing tricks on me, but it's definitely interesting since I've never seen anything like it until recently.

all I can say is this.

If you saw them, they weren't very stealthy.

I know why, But Im not tellin

Welcome to Colorado. Do you know how many military bases there are here? You should try living by Fort Carson if you think a couple Chinooks is out of the ordinary. I see C-130 Hercules and Blackhawks almost daily. I've even been buzzed by Apache's on Highway 115 in the middle of the night. There's nothing like seeing the green glow in the cockpit from their nightvision 15 feet above you and you can't hear or see the chopper until they are right on top of you literally.

Aw come on...don't leave us hangin'!

I saw two more chinooks flying NW from the direction of Buckley AFB around 2:30 today. Just an update for what it's worth.

Thanks friend ! Im not in Colorado now. I used to go to school there, But Im still interested whats going on . Very, very important place. for sure.

You're welcome! I'm used to lots of air traffic since we live close to DIA and Buckley AFB but we've been seeing and hearing lots of unusual aircraft activity lately. I have noticed that black choppers of all kinds seem to be heading toward the mountains...seems odd because I thought the bigwigs were supposed to hunker down in DIA's massive basement.

not too stealthy if they were seen by the public

Maybe there's a protest with more than 100 civilians

Mountains is where its at my friend, NORAD isnt the only Hollow Mountain, So much we dont know and our jaws would drop to the floor if we knew

Vast networks underground and in the mountains, like mini cities.

LOL, you don't have to tell me...I grew up in Roswell!



I wish we could head for the mountains, but we're stuck in a seriously underwater house that we couldn't sell if we threw in a trip to Mars. I believe you about the mountains...I've heard things over the years. If the chinooks are hauling supplies/people there as we speak, do you think "it" will be going down soon?
