Certificate
The Private Pilot Program is intended for people who may be learning to

aircraft. With your Private Pilot Certificate you are allowed to take
family, friends and co-workers on board your aircraft or the aircraft you
are renting while acting as Pilot in Command. Learn

Instrument
Rating
The instrument rating course is for private helicopter pilots who wish
to enhance their flying skills and learn more about navigation, weather and
the air traffic control system. It is also for commercial pilots who want to
gain a competitive edge in the job market, and meet the employment
requirements of many EMS, offshore and corporate operators. Learn more
Commercial Pilot

commercial pilot course is for private helicopter pilots who wish to continue
their helicopter pilot training, either to gain increased proficiency or with an eye
towards possible future employment.

Certified
Flight Instructor
You'll most likely need this to get a job. This course is for pilots who hold a commercial pilot certificate with a
helicopter rating and wish to obtain a flight instructor certificate. A flight
instructor certificate allows a pilot to give flight instruction and to endorse
the logbooks of others. This program is highly recommended to maximize employment
potential. Your first job will likely be an instructor as these
are the easiest jobs to obtain. You will most likely need 300
hours total time in helicopters for these positions as that is the threshold
most helicopter insurance policies require. Our program assumes you have 300
hours helicopter time with 100 hours flying from the left seat after you get
your commercial pilot certificate.
