OB380: Flying Wake Turbulence Machines

Episode 380 Show Notes

 

Topic of the show: On this week's show, RH and AG discuss the hazards of helicopter wake turbulence and rotor wash.  Patron Alpha Delta shares an awesome example of how a pilot can mitigate the risk and how ATC can facilitate a solution.  Helicopter wake vortices present a hazard on the ground and for arriving and departing aircraft.  We also have follow up feedback on IFR releases from non-towered airports, center controller's important work, and answer more of your aviation questions.  This episode is packed and you don't want to miss it!
