Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Do not approach or leave a helicopter while its engines are
					 running unless the pilot or designee signals that it is safe to do so. Approach
					 and leave the helicopter on a level with the craft or on a lower level, never
					 from or to ground higher than that of the helicopter. Carry all materials to or
					 from the helicopter in a horizontal position, not above waist level.
Do not place explosives, flammables, corrosives, or other
					 dangerous materials on board any aircraft without the pilot's knowledge. Do not
					 smoke within 50 feet of the helicopter, fuel storage, or fueling operation.
					 Turn off the radio transmitter when in the vicinity of explosives or an
					 explosive-loading operation.
Notify the person in charge of the project when you erect a
					 suspended line, tower, or other navigational hazard. Know the escape procedure
					 at each operation site. Always watch the helicopter, sling load, hook, or
					 bottom end of the cable to avoid being hit. Listen to and be familiar with the
					 normal sounds emitted by the helicopter in flight so that you will have the
					 earliest notice of trouble and can avoid dangerous exposure.
Passengers transported by helicopter shall obey the
					 following:
(1) Board and depart only on instructions from the
					 pilot.
(2) Use seat belts during take-off, flight, and
					 landing.
(3) Remain seated during the time aboard.
(4) Do not smoke unless permitted by the pilot.
(5) Do not talk unnecessarily to the pilot.
(6) Watch for other airborne aircraft and navigational
					 hazards, and call them to the attention of the pilot.
