No doubt a cubic yard?

I shifted many a kibble of concrete up in the Australian Alps, a tonne is roughly a third of a cubic metre and that was enough for the BK at 6,000ft AMSL thank you, even with a couple of aluminium kibbles to keep the weight down (they're normally of steel to cope with high-rise crane drivers). Always on a long line, though, at least 50'. The Wokka could be quite productive with a large Kibble and a fleet of Readimix trucks
