Dear Council Members:
On January 5th, 2012 the HHI Kearny Heliport celebrated its one year anniversary. Over the past year, we’ve developed a close working relationship with the FAA’s Newark Tower staff. We are pleased to report that subsequent to a meeting on December 7, with Newark Tower personnel, they have agreed to honor REQUESTS to operate at up to 1,000 feet of altitude whether inbound or outbound to the HHI Heliport at Kearny. Therefore, going forward, inbound and outbound aircraft from the HHI Kearny Heliport are asked to request the highest altitude possible, generally 900 feet if you are coming and going to and from the New York Special Flight Rules Area, or as directed when picking up one of the New York Helicopter routes. Newark Tower is aware that these requests will be communicated and will honor those altitude requests for you based on conditions at the airport on that given day. Please let us know if you have any questions. It is our policy to ensure the safe operation of aircraft arriving and departing from the facility and to fly in a manner cooperative with noise abatement procedures.
Thank you,
The HHI Kearny Heliport
