Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
Aero Linx: Eastern Region Helicopter Council (ERHC)
Eastern Region Helicopter Council (ERHC) was started in 1977 by local helicopter pilots, who were interested in the availability of IFR flight for rotorcraft. Their ad hoc meetings in New York City, using the initial name of Northeast Helicopter Operator Council (NEHOC), was the initial step in forming the eastern seaboard’s first, locally organized aviation group to represent helicopters. After the charter member pilots realized their success in joining together with respect to the IFR issue, they incorporated their organization in 1979, renaming it Eastern Region Helicopter Council, Inc., a non-profit organization, to represent their interests in aviation. Since its inception, ERHC has always had an active community outreach program to address the concerns of residents, relating to helicopter and heliport issues. In 1982, the ERHC was awarded the first ever Fly Neighborly Award by Helicopter Association International (HAI), and is featured as an example in the Fly
Neighborly Guide. ERHC is an affiliate member of Helicopter Association International (HAI) and the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA). Since 2007, we have strengthened our bonds with other local aviation groups, such as the Mid-Atlantic Pilots Association (MAPA), Mid-Atlantic Aviation Coalition (MAAC), Long Island Business Aviation Association (LIBAA), and New Jersey Aviation Association (NJAA).
