The primary traffic pattern altitude for helicopters at KFTW is what?
Correct Answer:
1300' MSL
Explanation:
The pattern altitude for helicopters is the specific height published for helicopter traffic around an airport, given in MSL so pilots can compute it from the field elevation. At KFTW, the official primary helicopter pattern altitude is 1300 feet MSL. With the field elevation around 650 feet MSL, that puts helicopters roughly 650 feet above the surface, a height chosen to keep helicopter traffic safely separated from other patterns and within the local airspace structure. The other listed altitudes don’t match the published procedure, so they aren’t the standard pattern height for this airport.
