1 HAI Safety Committee Ignited
2 What is an Ignite Presentation? Speaker has no control over the advancement of slides. Slides advance every 15 seconds. Each presenter will have 5 minutes to discuss their 20 slides. Speakers will try to keep up with their slides!
3 HAI Safety Committee The primary objective of the Safety Committee is to improve hazard and risk identification, assessment and mitigation, with the result of eliminating accidents and fatalities in the helicopter industry. The Committee seeks to advise and educate the helicopter industry on safety issues.
4 HAI Safety Committee The HAI Safety Committee represents a wide cross section of helicopter applications within the overall industry. All segments face different safety concerns specific to their unique area of operation. This presentation will highlight 8 of these specialized segments within the helicopter industry.

165 ENG DEFINITION Electronic news gathering. Using electronic recording and transmitting devices such as video cameras, recorders and broadcast transmitters to disseminate news to the public.
166 The first operational ENG helicopter was a Bell G-2. The first live transmission was accomplished on July 24, 1958 by KTLA-TV located in Los Angeles, CA. KTLA-TV called their helicopter the KTLA Telecopter. Over the years the equipment has gotten smaller but the principle has stayed the same. Live Shots
167
168 A typical ENG helicopter today is configured similar to the helicopter displayed in the following slides. Please note the similarities between todays ENG helicopters and KTLA Telecopter used way back in 1958.
169 FLIR Nose mounted camera
170 Photojournalist work station - Audio mixer - Video taper recorder - Video switchers - Troll antenna controller
171 Microwave transmitter
172 Troll antenna pod
173 There are roughly 150 ENG helicopters operational throughout the United States. Below is a partial list of companies that operate ENG helicopters. - Angel City Air - Helicopters Inc. - National Helicopters Service - US Helicopters - Sky Helicopters
174 To make ENG operations as safe as possible a large majority of operators have established a working relationships with one another to promote Safety. Most of the collaboration between operators occurs in two places. 1. The HAI ENG Committee 2. The National ENG Helicopters Association or NEHA for short.
175 The HAI ENG Committee mission statement: HAI ENG Committee Charged with developing and maintaining an awareness of all matters that affect the safe and efficient use of helicopters to conduct electronic news gathering. The Committee makes recommendations for appropriate action by HAI to enhance the safe utilization of helicopters in ENG operations
176
177 One of the major accomplishments the HAI ENG committee completed was publishing the, E-N-G Aviation Safety Manual. The new safety guidelines in this manual serve as new industry safety standards for the ENG aviation community. Broadcast stations, their aircraft vendors and aircrews now have new and solid safety guidelines for reference.
178
179 The HAI ENG Committee mission statement: NEHA Charged with developing and maintaining an National ENG awareness of all matters that affect the safe and efficient use of helicopters to conduct Helicopter Association electronic news gathering. The Committee makes recommendations for appropriate action by HAI to enhance the safe utilization of helicopters in ENG operations
180 NEHA s mission is: The primary goal remains the promotion of ENG (Electronic News Gathering) aviation safety. In addition, NEHA provides an industry forum for other issues important to the ENG aviation community
181 NEHA is free to join and is open to all individuals involved in ENG operations. - Pilots - Photojournalist - Mechanics - News room producers - i.e.
182 ENG wants to report the news, not be the news SAFETY FIRST
183 WHEW WE DID IT! We highlighted the Safety Concerns of 8 different industries in 45 minutes!!! A lot of differences and a lot of similarities.
