Abstract

This paper, by the Deputy Managing Director and the Director of Operations of KLM Noordzee Helikopters BV., describes the operation of a 24-hour service now available for supplying pilots to ships entering the harbour of Rotterdam and for maintaining communications with North Sea oil rigs, with special reference to the unusual navigational problems involved. The paper, which was illustrated by a colour film, was presented at a meeting of the Institute held in London on 17 April 1974 with Captain V. A. M. Hunt, c.b.e. in the Chair.
