Thank you very much for that information, had a chat with the IAA today and got the same information from them.The lady who deals with HAMSS was not there today but I had the plesure of attending Punchardstown with Celtic Helicopters HAMSS last year and have to say that they where very professional and done a top job and look forward to seeing you all there.Talking a 430 in so see you there....! By the way any ideas if they are providing night parking....?

The IAA will guide you as a good Ops Manager should. HAMMS available fom Celtic possibly IAA ( What a concept ) in Adobe. Interesting the amount of agency's involved, operators as well. I think there maybe a suprise for ALOT of heli customers, especially with the FATO, Parking and control potential.
I wonder how the Aer Corp Chaps will deal with the massive influx of civilian traffic in their playground? The R15 & R16, the MOA4 and the P23 could be a hindrance? Don't even mention the DELTA.........!!??? They may not be able to conduct their training for....well,...eh.... major economic, sport and touristic national events that need security by Land , Sea and the ever busy, strangely controlled Airspace. Or will there be Clear Sky procedures inplace, with no need to be concerned?? Sorry, I didn't mention the WX and it's accurate reporting / support system by the State......!

HeliPB,
What do you mean by the above???
Are the IAA running the HAMMS??
What kind of surprises with the FATO parking and control??

Celtic Heli's will have the Info as they are the 'Official Helicopter Company' for the Ryder Cup 2006. But they'll be operating on the approval of the IAA. Should be very interesting event

A commom misconception. The operator of such a site does not require the approval of the authority. It's done off their own approval.
There are published "guidelines" regarding how a site should be setup / run.
I have to argee with you Bladecrack, I've flown into some of the events that Celtic ran and I was very impressed. They could'nt help me enough.
Looking forward to seeing you all at the RC

B111971. Not a 'common misconception' but a fact Ol'Chap! Suggest you read the OAM 08/00 and SI 72 and the 'discretionary powers of the Authority'.......then you won't have any misconceptions and will be well informed...Fly Safe now, ya'hear!

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen...!
Well first off I have to say well done to HAMMS "Celtic Helicopters" ATC and Jan for a great performance shown at the punchardstown races it was a pleasure to see such a professional team at work.I didnt actually have our chopper over but got a lift in with one of our partners, but I was over to see the set-up and not the racing and how it was all going to pan out and as perdicted 10/10.,as I'm sure anyone who attened would agree.
The other reason I've write this post is that I've come across some new post's regarding the up coming Ryder Cup on Rotor heads which where from people asking what was happening with airspace and landings at it, so may-be we can just use this post for any questions other wise it will only get a bit mad.

Dont have an answer to your question ketchup,but I have a question for you if you can answer it. On reading the AIC issued from the IAA, they dont give any contact details for HAMMS only an e-mail that will not work.,not that its a problem for me as I have already registeried my two choppers but I think that an offical document from the IAA should give more "CORRECT" information for people travelling to the Ryder-Cup.,I phoned the IAA to let them know on Monday and again on Friday of last week but it seems like I'm 
. Celtic are aware of it but I under-stand its not there area but your IAA dont want to know,well in that I mean theres no one who can help.., is that a normal.

NORMAL????? Nothing is normal over here, but the word is it's getting better...sort of! If you call the IAA looking for information concerning the Ryder Cup, try ask for Captain Ian Dunn. He is an extremely helpful individual who will no doubt answer all your questions and guide you with great professionalism to a complete understanding of the Ryder Cup Heli Ops. But, in the unlikely event of not being able to contact Captain Dunn and no responses from your messages, you might contact Celtic Helicopters, who by the way, have a FUNCTIONING website!!!
If that doesn't work, contact the Director and Head of the Safety and Regulation Division, Captain Kevin Humphries. I highly experienced Aviator who is also known to be very helpful to helicopter operators and pilots!!!!

Dublin CTR Revision
Remember that with effect from 0800z this thursday 3rd August 2006, the lateral boundaries of the Dublin CTR change to overlap the Weston ATZ and the R15. Weston will be providing an ATC service and have an area of responsibility within the Dub CTR. When Military Airspace is not active, Weston will also have control of traffic in the area of the CTR that covers the R15. Military may still activate & deactivate R15/R16 at very short notice and R23 is still active H24.
