Helicopter noise can be an issue among municipalities. For example, major metropolitan areas such as New York City and the Los Angeles Basin are struggling to find noise-reducing solutions for helicopter tour and charter operators as well as police and helicopter air ambulance. Fly Neighborly seeks to create better relationships between communities and helicopter operators by establishing noise mitigation techniques and increasing effective communication.
The objective of the Fly Neighborly training is to provide you, a helicopter operator, with noise abatement procedures and situational awareness tools that can be used to significantly enhance operations. You will learn to apply flight techniques that minimize the effects of helicopter noise emissions that are effecting communities. The training will focus on flight techniques and safety considerations during phases of flight.
