TAKE-OFF PROCEDURE

 

Zermatt Heliport is located at the entrance of the village, which is very noise sensitive. So, there is only one possible arrival and departure path. If landings can occur in the heliport direction (but often with a tail wind component !), take-offs require a particular manoeuvre. This serie of pictures taken by Pierre GILLARD in June 2005 depicts such a take-off.

GROUND SUPPORT

 

Even if most missions take place close to Zermatt, ground support and fuel equipment is required to avoid unnecessary flight shuttles to the base. All those pictures were taken by Pierre GILLARD during June 2005.
