Recorded pad side 60 ft against a 100 ft eVTOL FATO.
Structural FATO
Unverified
The full 100 × 100 ft FATO must be load-bearing. The FAA does not record structural capacity, so no record can confirm it.

Unverified
No obstruction data on file. The dimensional gap applies; clearance is unverified.

The recorded pad is 40 ft short of the 100 ft footprint an eVTOL would need — shown to scale.

No heliport precedent — typically the binding gate for rooftop and hospital pads.

Measured against FAA pad geometry and federal FATO sizing (EB-105). The obstruction screen is the only reading the engine verdict rests on; geometry and structural capacity are stated separately and never folded into it. A dimensional pre-screen — site-level validation required, and independent of the underwriting risk score.

The FAA record places this pad at 250 ft. USGS terrain plus the building put the actual rooftop at 277 ft — a +27 ft difference the federal record doesn’t carry.

eVTOL footprint
FATO 100 ft reqHTLOF 60 ft

The 60 ft pad is 40 ft short of the 100 ft an eVTOL FATO requires (measured).

Obstructions, exact FATO geometry, surface condition, and downwash exposure require a physical Ground Truth capture — not shown above as measured. A field verification completes the record and writes the measured truth to this facility’s authority.
