The helicopters, which were designed in the 1950s for the US army, saw service in conflicts including the Vietnam, the Falkland Islands and Gulf wars.
They are used for trooping, resupply and battlefield casualty evacuation, becoming a key defence helicopter for the RAF.
Carrie Anne Crowe, who also spotted the Chinooks, said: "Spectacular to see two Chinooks."
