hi

I looked out the window today approx 11.55am, and i was surprised to see a helicopter(i dont know if it was a police one or on of those for a radio station) but it flew right below an aircanada 744 on its landing path. It had the L/G down at the time.

My point is that it could not have been more than 1000ft below the jumbo.

I was just a bit shocked at how close the two were.

If someone could just tell me the vertical and horizontal separation legally allowed between a/cs, that would be great.

I think there has to be a 3mile radius around the a/c on the landing path.

is that right, any comments would be great.

cheers
