Alabama Minimum Requirements For Heliports
The requirements for heliport construction are contained in the "Heliport Design Guide" which is available from the Aeronautics Bureau. The license categories are Public, Private and Medical Use. The requirement to receive permission from the Aeronautics Bureau prior to construction of any landing area includes heliports.
The construction of a heliport is based upon the size of the largest helicopter expected to use the facility. Usually, a 50 foot by 50 foot pad constructed of 4 inches of concrete will be of adequate size to accommodate any helicopter. The exact size and type construction planned must be coordinated with the Bureau.
