Landing site approval
If you require your helicopter to land at a previously undesignated site (anywhere other than a fixed helipad, controlled airfield or airport) Air Harrods has the expertise to search, survey and gain approval for such sites on your behalf.
You may know where you need to get to but do not know where it would be safe to put the helicopter down. If it is a popular venue you are visiting chances are Air Harrods has surveyed and had the site approved for helicopter movements before. Dependent upon the obscurity of the site we will search and identify suitable sites from Ordnance Survey maps and other media, then send qualified pilots to survey the areas enabling us to advise on the safest site to meet your requirements.
The final part of this service is to gain regulatory approval for your chosen site. Provided the site meets with set criteria this is not a difficult process. However, completing the necessary paperwork and providing the correct back-up documentation is time consuming.
We would be delighted to advise on any aspect of the search, survey and approval of landing sites to ensure the safety of your operation.
