Helicopter commander in court for allegedly breaking rules

From the Maidenhead Advertiser here


A helicopter commander is due in court accused of breaking flying regulations.

Vincent Campion, of Rogers Platt, Waltham St Lawrence, is charged with being the commander of a chopper which flew closer than 500ft to a person, structure, vehicle or vessel without the permission in writing of the Civil Aviation Authority.

The incident on April 14 involved a Robinson R44 helicopter which had earlier taken off from Sherburnin-Elmet, near Leeds. Evidence relating to the case is due to be presented at Maidenhead Magistrates’ Court on January 7.
