Except for some specialised ships working in the offshore oil and gas industries, most ships do not encounter helicopters very often. Yet they play a vital role in many emergency situations and it is important that seafarers are aware of the correct procedures and working practices that will ensure a safe and successful operation. This training package covers Basic Helicopter Safety for those boarding the aircraft in the conventional way; Ship Preparation to ensure clear communication and the safety of the helideck or winching area; and some of the more common Operational & Emergency Procedures such as winching or hi-line transfer. The package has been produced in collaboration with the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency.
