I did my military service at an Army Airfield. I often fell asleep in the late evening when the crews were hovering their choppers around behind the barracks. When the last chopper shut down its engine around 11 pm I woke up because I was missing the sound that made me sleep so pleasantly.

I've fallen asleep on every single flight. Luckily I'm national guard so no critical missions or anything. The pilots even took a picture of me and felt flattered cause I slept through both landings (we stopped to refuel) After I get enough of the landscape zooming by I just pass the fuck out. I could stay awake if there was something important but God damn it was relaxing. Especially in the middle of a busy day, just getting to sit down for an hour or so is great.

It's a little disconcerting at night, when you wake up and for a few moments, you don't remember where you are or what you're doing! :) You can sleep anywhere, any time... if you're tired enough- and being infantry will make sure of that! B Co 3/327, 1988.

Used to fly over those trees. Was a 67T/15T. Plenty of O rides and rappels at the Air Assault School. Back in the OIF days we were assigned to our aircraft. When I had to rappel out for Air Assault school it was my company supporting the school. So I actually rappelled out of my own hawk back in 2000. Did everything with that aircraft. Couple years later went to Iraq with the old girl. Last I knew she was in Alaska. Thanks for the vid! Great memories! Aco 5/101st Balls! Eagle Assault! Air Assault!

Never been on a Blackhawk but I really want to ride one. Been in two helicopters and it was great. Unlike every movie, game, song, story, or really any form of entertainment the helicopter is not always shot down. (EDIT: I forgot to put "on" between been & a)
@dallasyap3064

Black Hawks are cool indeed. And whether it is shot down depends whether is it a hostile zone and whether the pilots fly low enough to give enemy the chance to shoot it down with rpg.

I'm an aviation buff too and when i was at air assualt school watched the crew chiefs and how much they got to fly and thought "why the hell didnt i pick a different MOS?"

Black Hawks won't be phased out so fast. It's a good helicopter, that's why the Army is keeping them and has plan for them in the long future. They are too good to be phased out. Even in operation neptune spear, the stealth helicopters used are modified version of the Black Hawks. Don't worry u will get a chance to fly the Black Hawks.
