ROMA Caput Mundi Est
Rome is the capital of the world - meaning the Roman Empire.

ROMA is also the checklist provided by EHEST in 2016 in the Mission Request Vade Mecum Toolkit developed to help emergency front-line ground personnel to safely deal with helicopters: https://www.easa.europa.eu/document-library/general-publications/ehest-…

ROMA stands for Request, Obstacles, Meteorological, Area and Other.
Use the ROMA checklist and pass the word!

Thanks to Capt. Stefano Burigana, Elilombarda and the EHEST, now ESPN-R, Specialist Team Ops & SMS for developing this material.
