Luftfartstilsynet sender på høring et forslag fra EASA om endringer i reglene om allværsoperasjoner (all weather operations/AWO) og opplæring av flybesetning (flight crew training). Forslaget fra EASA kan leses her: Opinion 02/2021 | EASA (europa.eu).
#høringssvar
First of all,Norsk Flygerforbund (NF) is happy to see that IFR is an option that is more realistic with the proposed changes (for helicopters).
In the following we would like to comment on specific wording and procedures that may affect the ability to use IFR as a better option than marginal VFR.
AMC1 CAT.OP.MPA.125(d) Instrument departure and approach procedures
The initial proposal was to allow for Airborne Radar approaches to the coastline. This has been removed from the Opinion. That is disappointing, in particular for the operators that would benefit from such a procedure. At the next revision of the regulation, we welcome a second attempt to include this procedure into the regulation.
We disagree onthe argument: “In order to implement the ARA-L in normal CAT, SPO or NCC operations, the operator would need to put mitigation measures to reduce the risk, which might far exceed the investment necessary to design a PinS approach to coastal destinations.”
NPA 2018-04 –HEMS –Reduced VFR Minima to be used when instructed to proceed VFR
CAT.OP.MPA.110 Aerodrome Operating Minima –DH/MDA IFR approach table 6
This should not be restricted to what type of destination that is at reference. Regardless of an imaginary FATO or if there is a FATO close by, this should apply.
GM 9 CAT.OP.MPA.110 Aerodrome Operating Minima –Helicopters
Suggested new wording: If the vertical speed exceeds OEM recommended maximum, a go-around should be considered.
AMC3 SPA.LVO.100 LVTO Operations-Helicopters
The visibility arguments during departure are hung up in what to do if you need to return before you reach the IDF. A reduction in visibility down to the copter low vis of 400 meters should be possible if able to comply with the procedure on one engine. This is far less dangerous than maneuvering in low vis back to the FATO.
AMC3 SPA.LVO.105 c) Specific Approval
Suggested new wording:
The minimum crew should be two pilots or one pilot and a technical crew member.

Kypros er en vakker destinasjon, men veien inn kan forløpe seg litt spesielt. Flere har mer eller mindre frivillig stiftet bekjentskap med "ERCAN Advisory Area", og nå kommer IFALPA med sine anbefalinger til piloter som skal fly til og fra Kypros.
I disse dager pågår IFALPAs forhandlingskurs for tillitsvalgte, og Christian Laulund fra NF er en av kursholderne.
