Hazards of Gas Turbine Exhaust Plumes
Would you have any hesitations in flying a lighty or a chopper through the exhaust plumes of gas turbine powered electricity power generator/s.? If so, how close is too close?
Many units are mounted vertically and all seem to have vertical exhaust stacks.
Hazards may be extreme at close quarters from high velocity high temperature gases at depleted oxygen levels and much turbulence.
Do any sites have warnings and no-go areas.
I expect that some navy chopper pilots have learned the hard way in close association with gas turbine powered ships.
Perhaps no-one has yet considered flight testing.
