It is the policy of the University of Washington that the
general operation of helicopters and other airborne vehicles (e.g. hot air

prohibited due to considerations of personal risk, noise, disruption of campus
programs, and the potential for property damage. Airborne operations shall be
permitted under the following conditions:
- When such operations are required to support human life, safety, and
security;
- When special airborne operations are required for construction projects.

support flights is assigned to the Vice President for Health Sciences. Implementation
of this policy for construction and/or safety and security activities is assigned to

Proposals for airborne activities that do not meet this policy may be
approved by the Vice President for University Relations after consultation with the
Vice President for Finance and Administration. Criteria for such exceptional
consideration include:
- Nature of the service to be provided;

- Potential for disruption of campus activities;
