Detailed history and photos of helicopter Boeing-Vertol CH-46A Sea Knight Serial 2191 Register 152569 used by US Marine Corps USMC Track service timeline and current status.
The data is incorrect. The breakup was caused by a rotor blade failure due to battle damage. The aircraft shook itself to pieces. I still have a small piece of the aircraft, because I did the bullet hole repair to the rotor blade. The blade failed after apron 100 flight hours. The date is correct.
