Helos over London

AlanM. Have you seen the Ken's noise constraints itemised in the London City Airport Discussion Document, published this month? The Terms of Reference for the investigation are to:
• Establish what impact any increase in helicopter traffic and noise has had on Londoners and how this is being addressed;
• Determine helicopter routeing in London and assess if improvements can be made to the way helicopter air traffic is managed;
• Establish the noise performance of helicopters typically used and the different types of helicopter use in London;
• Examine the effectiveness of the three policies on helicopter noise in the Mayor’s Noise Strategy.
For Phil R. The Mil are subject to the route restrictions, shown at Figure 1 and 2, unless specific clearance has been obtained - and that usually takes a political approval.
