beam and ahead with speed normally from 10–50 knots However certain sea conditions may make it necessary to obtain a relative wind which is between 35° abaft the beam and dead astern Radio Communication The helicopter will contact the vessel on VHF–FM channel 16 and will request the ship to change to Channel or 70 The vessel shall advise the helicopter pilot of it’s position, heading, speed and the actual wind direction and speed over the deck Sea and Swell If possible the Master should ensure that spray, roll and pitch are kept to a minimum by selecting a suitable course and speed This is particulary important in preventing sea and spray from entering the helicopter’s engine The helicopter pilot should be informed of any likelihood of seas or heavy spray on deck When personnel are being winched to or from smaller ships, the helicopter pilot may request the ship to head into the sea to reduce rolling © Shipping Guides Ltd., Reigate, United Kingdom Elbe Helicopter Pilotage
