CH-53 video

A 53 could damn near internal my "house"..

Weight wise, a 60B could probably pick this thing up on a cold day.

Both scenarios assume, of course, that you are not in your house at the time. Otherwise, "C-5 Up!"

Paragraph One, Page One of the Phrog NATOPS.

BTW, I hear all this smack about -53s being able to lift a house (MasterBates's current residence not included), but I have yet to see photographic evidence. Anybody have proof? Or is this legend even less founded than Big Foot or Nessie?

I heard a 53 blew the roof off of a house in Indonesia. That has to count for something.

I can second. I actually met a 53 pilot who this happened to while in Indonesia during relief ops. I can't remember name or rank but he was speaking at my H.S to students, I think he was an instructor and he actually flew a Bell 206 onto our football field...
