Summary
[edit]Description23 Para Engineer Regiment train alongside RAF Benson Personnel MOD 45166878.jpg |
British English: Personnel from 9 Sqn Support Troop, 23 Para Engineer Regiment and Joint Helicopter Support Squadron rig an underslung load (USL) for lifting by a Chinook Helicopter.
Engineers must keep up their training rigging USL and this training session was to be lifted by an RAF Odiham based Chinook flown by an No. 18 Squadron RAF crew. It was also useful training for the Chinook crew to experience lifting a particularly heavy load and observing the flying characteristics of the JCB. The equipment being lifted as underslung loads (USL) consisted of a large JCB digger weighing 9,000 kilograms (20,000 lb) and a Motorised Roller (Wacker) weighing 2,500 kilograms (5,500 lb). Both of these are essential pieces of equipment used by the Royal Engineers for construction in the field, including airstrip and landing site preparation used by military fixed wing and rotary craft.
