The CH-47F #Chinook can now land itself — keeping crews' eyes up when it counts. A U.S. Army CH‑47F successfully completed its first fully automated approach and landing during a recent flight test. The helicopter used new and improved Digital Automated Flight Control System (DAFCS) software to touch down without any pilot interaction. Since its first flight on a U.S. Army CH-47F in January 2026, this #TeamBoeing-engineered technology has been used to complete over 150 approaches, with an average final position error of less than five feet.
