CAT A procedures for the AW139
TunaSandwich

I'd like to know if anyone knows the correct use for the ELEV HELIPAD 20ft TDP symbology. It would be logical to me to say that it is intended for the Ground Level or Elevated Heliport/Helideck procedure when the elevation of the Heliport/Helideck is at least 15ft above the ground. But this is not mentioned in the RFM as far as I can see.
The ELEV HELIPAD 20 ft TDP symbology needs adjustment to a minimum of 35 ft for the correct usage. This was initially develloped for the intended use on oil rig (Cat A Offshore) but never completed. This simbology must be used as per the HELIPAD simbology (duplication) either ground base or elevated.
It should not to be used for Cat A Offshore procedures, this profile is not included in the simbology.
