==Aviation Law and Regulations==
== Altis Air Rescue Regulations ==


====Exclusion/No Fly Zones====
=== General Air Rescue Rules ===
The following rules must be followed at all times:
* FA’S can only fly when they are a lone medics and must follow air rescue rules at all times
* You need to land on the hospital helipad ONLY when landing in Kavala and Athira. No other options exist.Get a car and drive.
* When landing in Pyrgos land in a suitable area, avoiding roads or areas that will disrupt roleplay. (AKA on the outskirts of the town not in the town itself)
* Do not land in the courtyard of hospitals, only land at the helipad
* Always follow aviation laws except when taking off or landing.
** 150 Metres above the ground in non-populated areas
** 300 Metres above the ground in populated areas (Kavala, Agios, Athira)
* Collision lights should be on all air vehicles at all times provided that they are available.
* The correct and most recent version of the air rescue uniform should be worn at all times while on an air rescue patrol
* You should attempt to land in an appropriate and safe area, busy roads should never be
* landed on.
* The timesheet must be filled for all patrols, and must include whether or not you crash (Unless the crash was caused by a server related issue).
* Failure to log 2 hours of air patrol per month will result in removal from air rescue. To rejoin Air Rescue, you will have to resit your entry test.
* You may not operate any vehicle that your tier does not authorize you to fly, even if it is
accessible via the vehicle shop. Abuse of this rule will result in blacklisting from Air Rescue.
* NATO(full face night vision helmet) should only be worn by taru trained pilots
 
=== '''Taru Rules''' ===
* All Taru Patrols must be noted on the timesheet.This includes CST’s
* Only two Tarus are to be used per server. (Unless authorized by a CMO or CAM)
* CMO’s have their own personal Taru’s so if you see two out but a CMO is flying one you may still pull out another.

=== '''Takeoff Checklist''' ===
* Collision Lights should be activated
* If available, a PAR or higher should be assigned to the co-pilot seat
* All other medics on the patrol should be in the back of the helicopter
* The helipad should be clear
* Reach an altitude of 150 metres after take-off
=== '''Landing Checklist''' ===
* When within 1km of a patient, aviation laws no longer apply as you are commencing a landing
* You should start to descend and slow down within 1km of a patient
* Landing areas should be assessed
* A safe spot close to the patient should be chosen
* All personnel in the back of the chopper should exit and finally the pilot should exit
* The helicopter should immediately be locked upon the pilots exit
== Emergency Procedures ==
=== '''Engine Damage Checklist''' ===
* Sometimes you may still have control and use of engine and you can carry on your flight.
* However if your engine has come to a halt. (Read Autorotation procedure)
=== '''Autorotation procedure''' ===
* First level out the aircraft, while the aircraft is level pitch the nose up just a tad allowing the wind to pass through the rotors.
* While doing this you should be holding down on your collective (whatever button you have bound to decrease altitude.)
* --------Keeping the aircraft steady you can slowly approach your landing zone, remembering to stay clear from any trees or powerlines, open fields are your best option.
* As you're getting to around 10-15m from the ground you want to let go of your collective (button bound to lose altitude) and push on the throttle. This is now pushing all the air up into your rotors generating lift so you can bring yourself down softly.
=== '''Tail Rotor Damage Checklist''' ===
* Attempt to regain aircraft control, if this fails, take yourself up to a high altitude
* Tap the front of the nose down a tad for just a second and then let go of controls, the aircraft will start to spin faster and faster until gaining control. (make sure once tapping the nose forward you DO NOT touch anymore controls)
The aircraft will gain control and you will be able to fly back to the nearest helipad to repair.
