life jacket - update
 

hello

Can you give me update info about life jacket requirements ?
Private flight - A109 helicopter distance 56 NM from land.
According my knowledge life jackets are mandatory when flying more than 50NM from land .
Is it enough to have it on-board or everybody needs to put it on ?

thank you

From a practical point of view, if you're aren't wearing it when the helicopter hits the sea, you'll never get it on afterwards.

rules vs airmanship
 

If you ditch at 50 nms or 56 nms does it make difference.
Common sense should prevail.:ugh:
