helo
Slang for chopper
Helo is military and aviation slang for helicopter, clipped for quick communication: Two helos inbound, Get to the helo pad.
The spelling reflects pronunciation—distinguishing it from the greeting hello.
Common in military contexts and action films, less so in civilian speech.
