Analyze whether the nps, acting on its own authority, can legally ban helicopters from landing and taking off at locations within the park? identify the applicable governmental power and explain your legal reasoning clearly in proper legal terminology.

The national park service should not interfere with anything pertaining to aviation. In this case helicopeter landings. The FAA is the agency that grants permission on where helipads can be constructed and to what standards they are built. One never know when the use of a helicopter will be needed in National Parks. A helicopter is invaluable to search and rescue and research. Without it being able to take off and land in remote areas there will be valuable time lost in search and rescues or park maintenance. Simply getting from one place to another could be cumbersome. The NPS has no jurisdiction when it comes to FFA protocol thus it should interfere with the affairs of another organization.
