Surprisingly so.  First time I was in one I thought it would be an aerial charter bus; I was very wrong.

And at what part did the trolling start? Or even if it started at the beginning is there a way you could have actually added to the conversation. Maybe why we don't really go with the Hind model or why the Chinook is nimble enough.

Less douchery, more substance please.

MH-53K is in production and IIRC the AF and Marines are getting them.  We do the layups on the rotor spars, and they are ridonkulously huge.

Boeing has moved heaven and earth since Lockheed's F-35 debacle to make sure Boeing's military stuff is early and on-budget or on-time and under budget as much as possible.
They then point those facts out in their PR releases.

Can't say. Never rode in a 53.  The Army doesn't have them.

I was with the 101st ABN and rode in a lot of CH-47's.  
They all leak and if they stop leaking, that means the bird is out of hydraulic fluid and about to crash.

Gotcha. I've never ridden in a 53 either, but it came up in a block of instruction "if it's not leaking start to worry".
