Mmmm... Well if he was trying to land a commercial helicopter on a private or commercial yachts uncertified heli deck then no wonder he ran away...! We are going through some changes in yachting at the moment and are trying to get rid of these so called "Touch & Go" helipads. They are very rarely set up with the correct rotor clearances, and fire fighting kit, or are actually strong enough to take the crash of a large helicopter. The MCAGA have issued new instructions for the operations of helos on yachts under the LY3 code and this sets out how we want the operations and construction of these pads to be in the future. We still cannot though legislate against Private yachts with Privately registered helicopters doing what they want...! The only real people that can do that are the insurance companies who can stop them by insisting they comply with the new regulations. Glad they all survived though.
