Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).
Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

It was described in one of the Onze Luchtmacht issues a few years agol; this type of filter is not exactly new or unusual anymore. But you are right in that this is not the same filter that the Chinooks had when they were delivered in the 90s.
The filter is called EAPS, Engine Air Particle Separator. I believe it does a better job in keeping the finest types of sand (like in Afghanistan) out of the engine..
