CH-47 is a port of BIS' Arma 2 model and doesn't have the ramp "tongue" fully modelled and textured in order to close the upper section of the ramp.

Would require modelling the whole upper ramp section anew

Instances of US Army Chinooks flying with the ramp fully closed seem to be comparatively rare anyway

I cannot reproduce your issue with being unable to close the ramp after it is opened or levelled. The action menu item to close ramp still appears for me

0.4.2.1
Sorry. I found culprit. It's ACE v. 3.9.0.16. ACE3+RHSUSAF = CH-47F ramp not close (the command "Close ramp" is missing).

2 da12thMonkey:
Yes, you right. I found info about this. In real life, a chinook flies with an open ramp "tongue" or with a lowered ramp. One more machinegun point.

A workaround I found was in rhsusf_c_a2port_air.pbo >> config.bin line 14600.
Remove these classes:
class OpenCargoDoor
class LeverRamp: OpenCargoDoor
class CloseCargoDoor: OpenCargoDoor

And replace with:
class OpenCargoDoor
{
    displayName="Open Ramp";
    position="pos driver";
    radius=15;
    showwindow=0;
    condition="this animationSourcePhase 'ramp_anim' < 0.8 and (alive this) and ({player == _x} count [driver this, this turretUnit [3], this turretUnit [4]] > 0)";
    statement="this animateSource ['ramp_anim', 1];{if(not(_x isKindOf 'Man'))then{detach _x}}foreach attachedObjects this;";
    onlyforplayer=1;
    shortcut="user13";
};
class CloseRamp: OpenCargoDoor
{
    displayName="Close Ramp";
    condition="this animationSourcePhase 'ramp_anim' != 0.0 and (alive this) and (alive this) and ({player == _x} count [driver this, this turretUnit [3], this turretUnit [4]] > 0);";
    statement="this animateSource ['ramp_anim', 0.0];";
    shortcut="user12";
};
class levelRamp: OpenCargoDoor
{
    displayName="level Ramp";
    condition="this animationSourcePhase 'ramp_anim' != 0.6 and (alive this) and (alive this) and ({player == _x} count [driver this, this turretUnit [3], this turretUnit [4]] > 0);";
    statement="this animateSource ['ramp_anim', 0.6];";
    shortcut="user14";
};

Attached these changes in config.bin.

Side note we use ['ramp_anim', 0.8] in class OpenCargoDoor when using AFM.
