Helicopters over Puna
#46
I do find it amazing that the current helicopter flight paths are right over all of the Keaau schools in Keaau town (as they usually go between HWY 130 & old Keaau-Pahoa Rd - right above all of the public schools & very close to the other schools in Keaau town)

If there is any concern for safety, I would really think that flying over schools would NOT be an optimal choice, and most of us know that the helicopters do fly low at times (usually most of the time!)....

I have sent documentation, multiple emails....multiple phone calls (it is very interesting that the FAA contact is a small airplane owner on Oahu - amazing what you can find out when you are on hold!)

The most interesting fact I can find is that I have been mentioning the helicopter fly overs in Keaau schools lately & my safety concerns about that, & the more I bring that fact up, the fewer fly overs during school hours... I really have noticed it the last week....as school is out & the traffic has been back.... so the pilots are flexible, but only if it is in THEIR (or their companies) best interest....but from this, I would say that safety is the main concern of the local, state & FAA so ya gotta make sure that safety is YOUR main pitch/concern

That & this forum may be a very effective platform for concerns to be taken seriously....as I gave up on the reporting stuff quite a while ago...ie when I figured out that the people we are giving our concerns to may be the same people that fly overhead....
