2.0 Hangar Design Considerations
2.1 Helicopter hangar(s) on board should be positioned, as far as is practicable, so as to preclude excessive movement and acceleration forces. Guidance on this should be sought from the helicopter manufacturer/operator. Where possible, the positioning of hangar(s) should be determined through the use of computer modelling and/or wind tunnel testing (refer also to Section 3, para 2.2.3).
2.2 The perimeter of hangar(s) and any associated entrance or hatchway inclusive of helicopter lift arrangements should provide a stowage/maintenance box allowing for a minimum 0.5m clearance at any point around the helicopter and rotors when the helicopter is in its stowed condition.
2.3 Where appropriate CCTV should be used to ensure visibility of the aircraft at all times.
