I know what you mean. A part of crewing the helicopters is working on them. We have many parts that we lift on our own that are 75-100 lbs. Even the heavier parts are hoisted up but you are still having to wiggle and try to move parts that weigh several hundred pounds. Even some of our tools that we need to carry to the top of the bird weigh 50-75 lbs.
