Which cargo hooks can Pilot and Crew Chiefs release?

Explanation:
The key idea is which external hooks are designed to be released by the flight crew in flight. On both UH-60 Black Hawks and CH-47 Chinooks, the forward and aft cargo hooks are the ones that the pilot and crew chief can release using their in-flight controls. The center hook on the CH-47 uses a different release path and isn’t released by the pilot/crew chief through the standard cockpit/crew controls. So, the combination that matches what pilots and crew chiefs can release is the front and rear cargo hooks on both aircraft.
