Recommended Changes to ATC (Air Traffic Control) Procedures for Helicopters.

Abstract

FAA Air Traffic Control Handbook 7110.65B was reviewed on a paragraph by paragraph basis to identify those changes considered necessary to more efficiently accommodate helicopters in the Air Traffic Control System. As a result of this review, specific proposed changes are set forth in this report. An HAA(HAI) special ATC study working group was established by the HAA program manager to assist in the conduct of the project, and various direct industry contacts were held to solicit inputs. Keywords: Helicopter, Visual Flight Rules (VFR), Helicopter Special VFR (HSVFR), Fixed Wing Special VFR (FW/FVFR).
