I'm sure most of you here know (or don't care) but I post it anyway
:
In the US the right to land (or not) is not regulated by the FAA, it comes down to each state. That makes it pretty hard to pinpoint (or even to find out) in some states:
- For the lack of regulation in
Pennsylvania for example: the authorities (PennDOT) I talked to are ok with one, two, or three times landings or take offs (not nearer defined), but wish to survey the area for only $10 for continued, but still temporary use. Certainly one would have to obtain a license for a permanent heliport.
-
New Jersey on the other hand prohibits ALL landings at a private property without prior permission (N.J.S.A. 6:1-29):
"If not specifically preempted by Federal standards, the ultimate authority over the regulating and licensing of aeronautical activities and facilities in New Jersey resides with the Commissioner" - I don't think that applies to EMS though (not sure)
