Welcome Craig! Does your Tahoe fit in the back of the Sikorsky? That bird looks like a modern version of the old HH-3 Jolly Green Giant.

LOL, I think the Tahoe is a lil to big. Max gross weight of the S-92 is 26,500. Basic weight on most is right around 18,000. I tell people, size wise, it’s between the size of a UH-60 Black Hawk and a CH-53 Sea Stallion.

Yeah, I forget that a Tahoe is a might bigger than a Willy's Army Jeep! Good analogy and you have a cool job. A buddy of mine has been flying since we were teenagers but AFAIK he's fixed wing for the federal government still. I loved watching VERTREPs and regular ops of the Sea Stallion, Sea Dragon and my favorite, the Sea King from the deck of various carriers.
