Rear gunner in a CH-47 with Blackhawk over his shoulder - by: Tim King
The Blackhawk helicopter in the background is accompanying this CH-47 Chinook from Gardez to the Kabul International Airport. The machines are flown very low through the mountain passes as nearly all of Afghanistan is a high altitude environment. This causes aircraft to work harder, so many pilots fly no higher than necessary.
