Air Force Afghanistan
Five
8:00pm - 9:00pm
In the fourth instalment of the series, a Chinook pilot practises landing in a dusty desert, a suicide attack in Kandahar city puts the base hospital staff on high alert and the Royal Marines welcome some special guests from the UK. Built to operate in all conditions, the powerful Chinook helicopter provides a lifeline for the ground troops serving in the Afghan combat zone. Flying these bulky machines over sand, however, is not easy.
