I just made an in-depth perusal of the rules. :) The entry in the
Codex Titanicus does not mention skimmers one way or the other (even
for pop-up attacks. I would assume that this was clarified in a Q&A or
WD article). However, IMHO, you are right in prohibiting his Hydras
from firing at skimmers. Unlike flyers, they hug the ground pretty
close (just compare flight stand height) and would therefore count as a
"ground" unit as far as I'm concerned.
