chris collister May 27, 2013:
Helicopter engines are usually referred to simply as "gas turbines", "engine", motor" and/or "shaft" all being implied. The essential difference between a ship, pumping, generator, or helicopter engine is that, unlike a jet engine, these also include an independent (ie not mechanically coupled) power turbine to convert the hot gases into something that rotates at a more useful (lower) speed. Hence in this case the "groupe" is the GT plus power turbine.
