This investigation determines the capability of flow measurements over the SFS geometry in the prediction of airflow in the flight deck, which influences the ship environment on the helicopter capabilities, resulting in the flight envelope for maximum safe ship helicopter operational limitations (SHOLs) [3,4].
The ship superstructure produces high airwake turbulence levels and the platform of the flight deck which is short and never static introduces additional limitations known as ship helicopter operational limitations (SHOLs).
