AFMAN 11-217V1 3 JANUARY 2005<br />

Figure 4.14. Short Final Approach.<br />

4.5.1.4. Point In Space. While the point in space approach (Figure 4.15) is rare, it<br />

does illustrate how approach design takes advantage of helicopter capability. This<br />

approach (see AFJMAN 11-226 TERPS) places the helicopter up to 2,600 feet from<br />

the landing pad, and the pilot is expected to proceed visually, by ground reference, to<br />

the pad. If planning to use this type of approach, pay careful attention to weather<br />

conditions upon arrival, as VMC conditions are required to maneuver.
