not the case in the regulations. I would stake a considerable sum that there is no such rule. The only mandatory requirement for PC1 in HEMS is operating to a regularly used site (my words) in a congested (eg town) and hostile area (no safe places to land (eg dense city)). For example an elevated pad such as St George’s in London. Might be a company requirement but I highly doubt it.
