The paper provides a discussion of the influence of turbulence in the areaa of high urban buildings or in vicinity of fire on safety of helicopter flights. The analysis was conducted using Ansys Fluent software. All the threats considering helicopter flight, landing and hovering in such an environment were shown. As objects of this research helicopter types: W3-A Sokół, W3-A Głuszec and Robinson R-44 were used
