And another one! Sky hooks (as every old scaleyback knows) are the bits of kit the Royal Signals linemen use to elevate signals cable so they can cross roads.

No that big single rotor thing with a small cabin at the front for pilot and co pilot, then a huge empty space under the engine where they can carry a shipping container - sorry, helicopters aren't my strong point!

Nah, it's an Mi-26. I'm no expert on helicopters, so not sure of the one Mike's meaning. But came across the picture the other day of it dwarfing what most people think of as a large helicopter!
