CH-47 Chinook - Shithook
The thread title is POPULAR aircraft nicknames Chris
That was a very popular nickname for us Blackhawk guys!
No doubt lol......actually, we would throw out a "shithook" every now and then if an aircraft was having a lot of problems. The only name I remember that we had for Blackhawks, was Crash Hawks. This was in the early 80`s when the aircraft was fairly new and was having problems with the stabilator.
"Wobbly Goblin" was an overheard comment by a test pilot early in the F-117's development. The nick-name, while not "official", is simply one that stuck with it through the years.Those are good one's. really making me giggle a bit here.
Some are pretty obvious, but why F-117 and "wobbly goblin"?
