Title: ●Flight Plan Requirements for Helicopter Operations Under Instrument Flight Rules
Abstract: This rulemaking is needed because current rules discourage helicopter operations under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) in marginal weather conditions. This rulemaking would increase safety by allowing helicopter operators access into the IFR system commensurate with the unique flight characteristics of helicopters. This rulemaking project is a recommendation of the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee, forwarded to the FAA on November 18, 1997.
