As Offshore Oil industry people regularly fly over the sea in helicopters, most countries; including India, have made HUET training compulsory for such personnel. Statistics indicate that the chances of survival of an individual who has undergone the HUET course are substantially higher than a person who has not experienced such training. The danger of a fixed-wing aircraft ditching at sea is the same as that of a helicopter. The training is therefore also recommended for fixed-wing aircraft with the maritime role.

The aim of the HUET training is:

• To familiarize a trainee with the hazards of flying oversea in a helicopter.
• To make them aware of their duties as helicopter passengers; also the overall safety of the aircraft.
• To teach a trainee how to deal with an emergency.
• How to execute a no-over and underwater escape from a helicopter crashed at sea.

The HUET course in Mumbai combines practical exercises with learning the theory about various escape techniques, safe deployment of equipment, and several emergency procedures and when to use them.

Before your journey, you will be given a safety briefing by either the pilot or a crew. Listen to the briefing carefully; if you don’t understand, don’t hesitate to seek clarification. Remember this crucial piece of information could make all the difference between life and death in an emergency.

The briefing will include:
• Flight details.
