I seem to remember this as the solution to one of those 'intelligence' tests where the testee can run a question & answer session (yes/no answers only) to get to the result.
Something along the lines of:

some are ladders or aerials
some are water tenders or tankers
some airplanes that carry fire retardant
are also called tankers
helicopters carry buckets which they dip into
lakes or rivers to apply on fires..

these whcih scooped up a scuba diver
