Title:Standards for offshore helicopter landing areas
Description:This publication provides the criteria applied by the CAA in assessing the standards of offshore helicopter landing areas for worldwide use by helicopters registered in the United Kingdom.
The ninth edition comprises updates to the material on helideck movement in Chapter 6 and the meteorological information content in Chapter 6 and Appendix E. The guidance on helideck surface in Chapter 3 has been modified and flow charts added to improve clarity, and the specifications for helideck status lights and helideck monitoring system repeater lights have been collected together with the specification for the helicopter hoist status light in Appendix J. The protocol for regulating operations to NUI’s in abnormal states contained in Appendix I has been substituted with a new, simplified version. Minor changes to Appendix K have been introduced to resolve ambiguities.
