Which neatly provides a forum for me to ask for clarification as to whether or not Rule 5 applies for a helicopter landing at a private site. For example landing in your mate's house and not only are you within 500ft of his house but you must fly within 500 ft of a neighbouring house. Presumably since you are landing or take-ing off, Rule 5 does not restrict you?
And before i get nailed... i am asking as a fixed wing PPL who has just had his first lesson in a Bell 47 and is completed hooked already.
