The typical path that someone would follow when starting their helicopter flight training is usually first obtain their PPL or (Private Pilot License) which allows you act as Pilot-in-Command of the aircraft and fly with passengers. Students who wish to only fly for fun or on weekends may choose to stop their training at this level.
Students who aspire to work as pilots continue their flight training towards their CPL or (Commercial Pilot License). This allows you to be compensated and to do certain kinds of commercial work.
Further training can lead to a CFI or (Flight Instructor Certificate) which allows an instructor to work and build time and experience whilst teaching other students.
In addition to Private and Commercial license, an IFR or (Instrument Rating) will provide students with crucial instrument skills.
After a student obtains their Flight Instructor certificate, the CFI-I (Certified Flight Instructor - Instrument) will allow an instructor to provide instrument training to students.
Note: The typical path of flight training is usually PPL >> IFR >> CPL >> CFI >> CFI-I
Note: We offer Add-On training for those that already hold other licenses.
Our fleet of training aircraft include the:
· Robinson R22 Beta II (2 seat piston engine)
· Robinson R44 Raven II (4 seat piston engine)
