FDK actually does have a standard for helos. To start, FW traffic is about +300' compared to RW. The larger issue is the noise abatement restrictions that surround the field and that cause the patterns to mix. 5-23 has the better of the two set ups. Helos fly right traffic for 23 and FW flies...

I've flown into airports before where flying opposite of FW wasn't possible (noise restriction, if I remember correctly). In those instances, I was taught to keep it tight and fly well within FW's pattern and and below them.

The basics of AutoCAD are relatively easy to learn. A community college class would probably be the easiest way to learn but there are step by step books that will show you most of the major commands. I've been using AutoCAD, Inventor and Solidworks for years.

Re: How is this not Screaming Page 1 News?!? -- Helicopter Makes Forced Landing on Hu This kind of situation is the reason I want to take a HUET course.

I worst offender I've come across so far was a cessna pilot who not only decided to take off immediately after me without announcing (@FDK before it became towered) but did so before I even climb out. To make matters worse, rather than overtake me to the side, he/she decided to attempt to out...

The doors on the Robinsons come off.

I would answer 3400'.

Good on you, dude.

Just as a side note, the DSM recently eliminated ADD and replaced it with ADHD with sub-categories.

Neither was I. I was saying that going from S&L to a 1500FPM descent in a matter of seconds is a hell of a change.
