Helicopter Flight Training

Helicopter training is offered to the beginner pilot as well as advanced students pursuing a professional career in aviation. Our primary training is done in the Hughes 269A / Schweizer 300, the Robinson R44 or the Robinson R22 models. These are the most popular training helicopters in the world due to their simplicity and economical operating cost. The student pilot with professional goals will be given the opportunity to be proficient with each of the helicopters which enables them to step into the pilot workforce as an instructor without any further "transition training" required.
