Avinor helicopter manual

Aeronautical information for helicopter operations.

Avinor Helicopter Manual (AHM) is a sustainable solution for the efficient and safe provision of operational information regarding helicopter operations in Norwegian airspace.

The AHM includes data and information from relevant sources, e.g. the coordination agreement between Norway and United Kingdom concerning Operational Air Traffic (OAT) and Low level IFR Routes for the National air ambulance services of Norway.

If you wish to receive more information regarding the solution, or you want to influence future development of the solution, such that it fits your, or your company’s, operations; please contact Avinor Information Management ()
