Interaction with Airshow Display Periods In the period immediately prior to a display commencing, helicopter operations will be stopped in sufficient time to be on the ground or a suitable distance away from the airfield prior to display commencement. Post display operations during the airfield closure period are acceptable, provided they do not hinder essential Airshow repositioning activities. Wake Turbulence procedures. Arriving helicopters are to be issued with recommended Wake Turbulence spacing phraseology as per CAA CAP493 (MATS Part 1). Operators will not normally utilise the full gap indicated as part of the recommendation, but will adjust their arrival profile to avoid wake turbulence encounters. Departing helicopters will not require departure wake turbulence separations when the main Runway operation involves a light or small aircraft. Missed Approaches The standard Missed Approach for FATO 24/06 is to climb straight ahead, remaining north of the Display line markers to remain in the visual circuit for the FATO. Minimum Departure Interval (MDIs) On occasion the outbound flow of Helicopters may be restricted on request by TC SVFR or Battersea. This may result in ground delays to achieve one departure every five minutes to Battersea. HELICOPTER OPERATORS GUIDE FIL 2018 14 MARCH 2018
