LZ Information
Location/Description: New "Ray Thompson Memorial Heliport" rooftop pads open as of 5/30/2020. Please review the current helipad plan here: https://bit.ly/CMFHhelipad ================================================== The rooftop helipad is a large, rectangular rooftop landing area with two designated parking spots. The helipad is on top of the six-story Bradley/Thompson Tower. The ground helipads are located on the southwest corner of the CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital property. ================================================== Pad 1 and Pad 2 are on the rooftop helipad, and Pad 3 and Pad 4 are ground-level pads. - Pad 1 is the southern helipad on the rooftop helipad and is rated 12 D53, - Pad 2 is the north helipad on the rooftop and is rated 8 D43. - The two ground-level helipads are located on the southwest corner of the hospital property. ================================================== When en route to Tyler hospitals, all aircraft need to communicate on the Tyler Unicom, 123.075. Aircrews need to make radio calls on 123.075 at 10 miles out and 5 miles out from landing providing their relative position and arrival times. Inbound aircraft will need to call patient reports on VMED-28 (previously called the HERN) at least 10 minutes out from the facility. Visiting aircraft must contact LIFECOMM on VMED-28. LIFECOMM will acknowledge the pilots landing call. LIFECOMM shall inform the incoming aircraft whether or not the helipad is clear and which helipads are occupied. ================================================== There is no space for long-term parking. Pilots must secure their aircraft before entering the building and must remain on the 6th floor, in case contact is required by LIFECOMM to relocate. If the crew will be in the hospital longer than 30 minutes, or if additional aircraft are inbound with patients on board, aircraft will be required to relocate to the ground-level helipads (Pad 3 or Pad 4).
