UK HEMS and NVGs
JimL,
As English is my second language....American being my first.....am I correct to assume....
....means that there must be a prior approval from EASA for every such landing site?
I am looking at this from the perspective of doing "Scene Flights".....landing at the sites of automobile crashes where folks are deemed needy of Helicopter Evacuation.
Is my perception correct......that under EASA Rules....only pre-selected and pre-approved landing sites are permissible?
Or....can the Fire Brigade block off a section of roadway or designate a cow pasture or clearing on the edge of the road as a landing site and the helicopter operate to that particular site using a pre=approved procedure?
Is it the procedure or the location that must be approved?

better that a risk-assessed procedure (for that site) which minimises exposure, is used.

HEMS "Technical Crew"
Hi
The HEMS "Technical Crew" title is upon us.
Does anyone know if the title will have an FTL scheme attached, in line with pilots FTL schemes or will the role operate in accordance with local working time directive guidance.
I can't seem to locate any info.

Hi JJ8
The requirement for this is in CAT.GEN.MPA.100 and is 'a bit vague'. My understanding is that the method for this will be produced in future rule making tasks - possibly published in 2015 to be adopted in 2016 for HEMS.
Cheers
