Exterior recordings from a CH-47D Chinook that was performing fire fighting duties during the summers of 2017-2018. Recorded at a quiet airport with zero ambient background noise. The collection includes arrivals and departures while refueling. A single hand-held Schoeps MS set with a MK4 Mid microphone and MK8 Side microphone was used at multiple distances. A Sennheiser MKH8040ST XY microphone set was used for the APU (Power Unit).

The video footage below was shot with my iPhone 6+ while standing close to a Boeing CH-47-D “Chinook” helicopter as it was preparing to depart. The audio track is from a Schoeps MS microphone rig. I was holding the Schoeps MK4/MK8 MS microphone combination in my left hand while holding my phone with my right hand. As you can see, this gigantic rotorcraft puts out a huge amount of wind. The Schoeps covered with a Rycote windscreen system held up very well. Special thanks to Billings Flying Service for letting me know when they were leaving and for allowing me to set up a bunch of microphones around their beautiful helicopter.
The Boeing CH-47 Chinook is an twin-engine, tandem-rotor, heavy-lift helicopter developed by American rotorcraft company Vertol and manufactured by Boeing Rotorcraft Systems. The CH-47 is among the heaviest lifting Western helicopters. The CH-47D shares the same airframe as earlier models, the main difference being the adoption of more powerful engines.

Here is what it sounds like recording a CH-47 Chinook helicopter close up. Being under this machine while it’s lifting off is thrilling to say the least… the wind gusts it produced almost knocked me down a few times. With the Schoeps MK4/MK8 MS Microphone in my left hand and my iPhone in my right it was tough to stay steady as you will see. Audio in the video is from the decoded stereo Schoeps microphone set.
