– – Caution Helicopter Wake Turbulence – by Ned Parks – –

Do we really know the effect of rotor wash on wake turbulence? What is the controller really telling you when he says “caution wake turbulence?” Has the controller identified what distance? Size of helicopter? How much turbulence will be generated? This is all left up to you!

Mr Park’s presentation will answer many of these questions for you. This will be in person event at IRWD, and Ned will join us by Zoom. (since he lives in Ohio).
