Flying a helicopter in Ireland
In Ireland, the CAA oversees Northern Ireland’s aviation, while EASA delegates to the Irish Aviation Authority in the south. Helicopter pilots must submit a GAR 2 hours before departure, and notify police 12 hours prior if no airport police designation. Highlights include aerial views of the Cliffs of Moher, Skellig Michael, and Giant’s Causeway. Pilots must check for fuel availability, and certain landings require permits. Annual aviation events, such as the Foynes Air Show and Bray Air Display, attract aviation enthusiasts. Helipaddy aids in identifying landing sites and requirements.
