RE: Helicopters procedures for S27
Brian:
The only thing that you might want to add would be administrative
information:
1. No restrooms immediately available, use FBO
2. No potable water immediately available, use FBO
3. Vehicles must have rotating beacon or flags on vehicles to
drive on Airport Operational Areas (AOA), taxiways and runways.
4. Electricity not immediately available at the site.
5. Kalispell Fire Department and Kalispell Police Department have
jurisdiction at the site. Both available thru 911
That should cover it for immediate use. Any long term use would need
more coordination.
Thanks,

Subject: Helicopters procedures for S27
After meeting with Fred Leistiko, the airport manager for Kalispell City
Airport, I thought that I'd come up with a minor procedural change for
when we order helicopters to report to that airport.
Fred, is there any other information that you would us to communicate to
you or Red Eagle prior to the arrival of the helicopter(s)?
Please let me know if y'all think we need to add to it....THANKS!
