Working with VAI on Common Challenges ACHHEL has been collaborating with VAI for several years now and is a member of VAI’s International Partnership Program, which promotes common safety and operational stan- dards and best practices in vertical flight. Both associations strongly believe that the regular exchange of information on policy and regu- lations benefits both our members and the countries in which we oper- ate. Sharing insights from different nations, as well as learning from the experiences of operators and com- panies in those regions, helps us navigate common challenges more effectively. For instance, the draft manage-
ment plan for the RNK proposed ban- ning air tour flights and other aircraft operations over protected areas, simi- lar to US air tour management plans, which aim to reduce or even elimi- nate air tour operations over national parks. These efforts in both Chile and the United States, though distinct in their regional focus, reflect a global trend toward stricter regulation of aerial activity in certain areas. By engaging in ongoing dia-
logue, we can better understand the rationale behind these regulations and develop coordinated strate- gies to address similar challenges. Learning from one another’s experi- ences enables us to advocate more effectively for our members. Such collaboration strengthens our ability to protect both our industries and the natural landscapes in which we oper- ate, ensuring sustainable practices in aerial operations worldwide. Loreto Moraga is president of the Chilean Helicopter Association (ACHHEL) and the Chilean Space Association (ACHIDE).
