Heliport Safety Training
We are an 'appropriate training provider ' as stated in the UK MCA Large Yacht Heliport Safety Training Syllabus. As required by heliport crews on Red Ensign Group large commercial yachts and recognised widely in the marine community, we provide training in line with the MCA syllabus to achieve qualifications for:
-
Helicopter Landing Officer (HLO)
-
Heliport Deck Assistant (HDA)
-
Heliport Rescue Fire Fighting (live fire & rescue practical)
-
Helicopter Refuelling

Non-Commerical
HLO & HDA Training
There are inherent dangers involved with operating helicopters from ships and as a minimum, SOLAS requires personnel on ships with helicopter facilities to be trained; we offer this for all personnel onboard, including:
-
HLO-Helicopter Landing Officer
-
HDA-Heliport Deck Assistant
-
HRO-Helicopter Responsible Officer
-
Bridge teams

Specialist Roles
There are specialist helicopter roles and tasks, in addition to VIP/guest transfer operations, for which additional specialist training is highly recommended. Such additional training helps to mitigate the risks associated with conducting these roles, which include:
-
Helicopter refuelling
-
Sling loading
-
Cold weather (Arctic/Antarctic)
