FLIGHT TRAINING

Our basic Private Helicopter Pilot Licence courses start with demonstrating and educating our students on the effects of control movements, how to sit and hold and operate the controls. You will then be walked through the process of learning to fly the helicopter, learning to hover, go through circuits, emergency procedures and navigation. All of these procedures aim to get our students’ skill level to that of a commercial or private helicopter pilot.

This training is normally performed in either a Schweizer 300CBI or a Robinson 22 or a combination of the 2 types.

In Australia, the minimum required hours required to obtain a Private Helicopter Pilot Licence (PPL-H) is 50 hours and a pass on the private theory exam.
