ICAO AN 14 - Vol. 2:2020 PDF Download

The ICAO AN 14 - Vol. 2:2020 standard, also known as Annex 14 - Aerodromes - Volume II - Heliports, provides specifications for the physical characteristics and obstacle limitation surfaces that should be implemented at heliports. Additionally, it includes guidelines for the facilities and technical services typically available at a heliport. It is important to note that these specifications do not regulate or limit the operation of the aircraft itself.

When designing a heliport, the standard recommends considering the dimensions and maximum take-off mass (MTOM) of the largest helicopter that the heliport is intended to serve. This ensures that the design can accommodate the requirements of the critical design helicopter.

It is worth mentioning that specific provisions for helicopter flight operations can be found in Annex 6, Part III, of the ICAO regulations. The AN 14 - Vol. 2 standard complements these provisions and focuses on the physical infrastructure requirements for heliports.
