The world largest helicopter, a Russian "Mil-Ten" shows its potential in London by lifting a bus, complete with 28 passengers. Nicknamed "The Flying Crane," the giant helicopter handles twenty tons with ease. A giant helicopter and a bus. The bus is placed on some kind of carrier under the helicopter. The helicopter starts to lift the bus into the air under its belly. That is one large helicopter.
