Helicopter Pilot Training


To become a helicopter pilot you must complete a 3 stage process. Firstly, you need to pass a medical check; secondly there is a theoretical test, and thirdly comes flying practice itself. When choosing your training centre there are a few things you have to consider.
  • The cost of flight training differs a lot between countries. This is worth thinking about.
  • Look for a flight school that is flying a type of helicopter that meets your needs.
  • Assess your flight instructors’ ability to teach you. Make a change if necessary.
  • Flight schools differ in atmosphere and approach.
  • Not all flight schools own enough helicopters to enable you to practice at times that suit you.
  • Only take lessons at flight schools with high safety standards.
  • Prepare yourself for every single flight lesson. It will save you money.
