Here are a few essential tips to remember when approaching or leaving a helicopter:
+ Do not approach the helicopter unless escorted by the pilot or crew members
+ If on uneven ground, approach or depart from the downhill side for maximum rotor clearance
+ Do not raise anything above the head and crouch while walking in the vicinity of the helicopter
+ Beware of downwash; protect your eyes with safety goggles or turn your head when the helicopter is landing and departing
