Had a great week. Ferried guests, drivers and team personnel in to Le Mans throughout the week from a great Chateau (des Broittieres) 40nms sw near Champigne (working on pic!) Dropped off a tired boss and his wife back in sunny Yorkshire, with the sun glinting off the Le Mans 24hr trophy for first place in GT2!!!! Reckon it's been a while since a 'privateer' has won such a prestigious race........ Chants of 'YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE' could be heard from the podium!!!! :) Winning car http://www.teamlnt.com/Images/Media/...s/IMG_0145.jpg http://www.bluetonguehelicopters.com.au/pprune/gr.jpg |

Next week am taking my 206 down to just south of La Rochelle with my freshly minted Helisurface permit on board. Can anyone recommend a good chateau for lunch somewhere between Deauville and La Rochelle that is known to accept helicopter diners? Somewhere in the Loire would be most pleasing...
Thanks in advance. SC |
Heli Surfaces Permit
Hi Southern Cross,
Is a HSP difficult to get? I have heard that it is a beaurocratic nightmare. Any help appreciated. VBR Hairyplane |
Hi Hairyplane
If you're a member of HCGB, get in touch with the club event secretary - he's an expert on this and has a pre-completed example form to help you fill in the application. I do know the forms have changed lately though and I'm assuming he will have an up to date version. Regards 2Sticks |
Heli Surfaces Permit
Thanks a lot!
I am a member and will do just that. VBR Hairyplane |
Back out to France 2007
Don't get out much but back to Le Mans for pre-qual this weekend in an attempt to defend GT2 title................
Has much changed since last year? Now that we have a helicopter with 'legs' - looking at flying direct to chateau from LEEDS... has anyone managed to convince the French customs to permit this or do you always have to enter via an 'airfield'. |
Are there any height restirctions, for landing in the Alps (as there are in Switzerland)? I'm planning to go down to the Alps this summer in my 206. I have a Heli-surface permit and will land at around 1,100m outside a village.
I need to be a bit careful: the local mayor is bit anti-heli, I need to be bang on with the paperwork! |

Fast Online Notams with Map
http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=239905
Discussed on this thread in private flying, used it a few times and found very easy, well worth a look |
use the notam map on www.ukga.com
|
The AIC has a very good map of the RA(T), so why should you need to plot it?
|
I was in Hyde Park today (sat) watching the tour prologue; a police helicopter was constantly overhead. Isn't this a bit of a waste of taxpayers money (what's it cost? about £1,000 per hour?), just having it mooching around, when there isn't an actual incident happening?
Why can't it just stay on the ground until it's needed to attend and incident? |
