We watched the chopper from the summit of Doan yesterday morning.  Could see it with the bags of rock swinging beneath as it ferried it up the mountain.  Wouldn't fancy a lump of granite dropping on to me from that height ;)

i could hear it today when we were on meelbeg, would have been weird if i didn't know what it was as it sounded quite close, surprised they were flying with all the low cloud, suppose it might have been different over binnian
