New York North Shore Helicopter Route (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the New York North Shore Helicopter Route (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This action requires helicopter pilots to use the New York North Shore Helicopter Route when operating along the north shore of Long Island, New York. The North Shore Helicopter Route was added to the New York Helicopter Route Chart in 2008 and prior to this action, its use has been voluntary. The purpose of this rule is to protect and enhance public welfare by maximizing utilization of the existing route flown by helicopter traffic one mile off the north shore of Long Island and thereby reducing helicopter overflights and attendant noise disturbance over nearby communities. This rule will lapse in 2 years unless the FAA determines that a permanent rule is merited.

Helicopter Air Ambulance, Commercial Helicopter, and Part 91 Helicopter Operations (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Helicopter Air Ambulance, Commercial Helicopter, and Part 91 Helicopter Operations (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This final rule addresses helicopter air ambulance, commercial helicopter, and general aviation helicopter operations. To address an increase in fatal helicopter air ambulance accidents, the FAA is implementing new operational procedures and additional equipment requirements for helicopter air ambulance operations. This final rule also increases safety for commercial helicopter operations by revising requirements for equipment, pilot testing, and alternate airports. It increases weather minimums for all general aviation helicopter operations. Many of these requirements address National Transportation Safety Board safety recommendations, and are already found in FAA guidance. Today's changes are intended to provide certificate holders and pilots with additional tools and procedures that will aid in preventing accidents.

Air Ambulance and Commercial Helicopter Operations, Part 91 Helicopter Operations, and Part 135 Aircraft Operations - Safety Initiatives (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Air Ambulance and Commercial Helicopter Operations, Part 91 Helicopter Operations, and Part 135 Aircraft Operations - Safety Initiatives (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This proposed rule addresses air ambulance and commercial helicopter operations, part 91 helicopter operations, and load manifest requirements for all part 135 aircraft. From 2002 to 2008, there has been an increase in fatal helicopter air ambulance accidents. To address these safety concerns, the FAA is proposing to implement operational procedures and require additional equipment on board helicopter air ambulances. Many of these proposed requirements currently are found in agency guidance publications and would address National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) safety recommendations. Some of these safety concerns are not unique to the helicopter air ambulance industry and affect all commercial helicopter operations. Accordingly, the FAA also is proposing to amend regulations pertaining to all commercial helicopter operations conducted under part 135 to include equipment requirements, pilot training, and alternate airport weather minima. The changes are intended to provide certificate holders and pilots with additional tools and procedures that will aid in preventing accidents.

The objective of this report is to supplement current, in-place helicopter route procedures and standards. These guidelines are designed to expand upon existing helicopter operational and environmental considerations and to assist FAA air traffic managers and the rotorcraft community in route development, implementation, and maintenance. This is the third in a set of three reports. The two prior reports are: DOT/FAA/RD-90/18, Rotorcraft Terminal ATC Route Standards, and DOT/FAA/RD-90/19, Rotorcraft En Route ATC Route Standards. The recommendations and conclusions from these two reports provide a foundation to enhance the existing Helicopter Route Chart Program.
