A tandem-rotor aircraft is an aircraft with two large helicopter rotor assemblies mounted one in front of the other in the horizontal plane. This configuration is mainly used for large cargo helicopters.[1] Such aircraft are often informally referred to as "Chinooks," after the CH-47 Chinook, one of the first widely adopted heavy-lift helicopters with a tandem-rotor configuration.
