telecopter

名词 n.

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A helicopter used by a television news channel to gather footage.
    — The angle came from a helicopter—KTLA-TV’s “telecopter” was the first of its kind. The utility of the Korean War–vintage Bell 47G-5 with the camera affixed to its belly had so far been mostly prurient: shots of the swimming pool where Marlon Brando’s maid had drowned; of the well that swallowed a darling little girl; of movie stars’ mansions being devoured by brush fires in the Hollywood hills.
