Boeing CH-47 Chinook (P2-CHL) - Columbia Helicopters Boeing Chinook 234 (P2-CHL) landing at the Port of Melbourne docks. This was in preparation for the aircraft to be loaded onto a ship. I chose to meet the aircraft at the docks over Moorabbin Airport as the setting presented as a unique location in which the aircraft would be rarely seen by the public.Photos taken on the 11/6/16.

Love the bubble-windows for the flight crew to view outward and below. I am sure there is a proper name for them. Great photo, Andrew.

Thankyou CDBrozovich! I'm not an expert but Bubble-window seems to be the commonly used name for them.
