Chinook cargo and cabin

The CH-47 Chinook is the heavy lifter: 22 seats and a hold that takes cars and motorbikes. It is marked Experimental, so expect rough edges and report what you find on the Discord.

Start-up, flying and landing work like every other aircraft; see Flying basics.

Loading a car

  1. Land the Chinook on level ground and shut it down.
  2. Park the car at the open rear ramp.
  3. Get everyone out of the car. It must be empty.
  4. Use the Load action at the ramp.

Driving a car up the ramp is not supported; use Load.

Once loaded, the car shows in the hold with its wheels, doors, hood and other parts. Those are display copies: nobody can take them. When you unload the car, the real parts come back with it, as they were.

The Chinook needs to sit fairly level to load vehicles. If it's parked tilted on rough ground, move it somewhere flatter.

Motorcycles and scooters

You can ride a motorcycle or scooter up the ramp and aboard. A bike ridden in is not secured, so carrying it that way is at your own risk.

Cargo and seats

Cargo closes only the cabin seats it covers. With a hatchback and small bikes, the free seats are:

Empty hold22 seats
One bike20 seats
Two bikes18 seats
One car12 seats
One car and one bike9 seats
Two cars3 seats

Longer cars close more seats.

Walking into the cabin

On the ground, the pilot and co-pilot can use Stand up into the cabin and walk aft. To change seats on the ground, stand up or get out first.

There's no standing or walking inside in flight. Everyone needs a seat before take-off.
