Mil Mi-17 aka HIP aka Survival of the Fattest

It’s amazing what knowledge you can pick up from other people.

I already knew about his good (mad, bad, dangerous to know) mate, the Russian helicopter pilot who was shot down in Iraq. He flew a Hip.

Survival of the Fattest? Hip? Link?

The helicopter that drops the cargo in Mongolia for Clarkson, May and Hammond is a Mil Mi-17 aka NATO Hip.

FACT of the Day :o)
