I Like It When You Call Me Big Choppa

Here are a couple of photos of a very large helicopter. It is designed to move oil rigs around. It can carry 110 people, and its run rate is about $420 per minute (yes, that's $25,000 per hour). By comparison, the helicopters that I normally use can carry four passengers, and only cost about $900 per hour to rent.

These photos were taken in northern Alberta, at the Whitecourt Airport.
