This
page aims to give you an insight to the requirements and costing of
gaining a JAR PPL.(H)
A good
starting point is a Trial Lesson, this gives you the opportunity to fly
the helicopter yourself and see how much you enjoy it. Normally your
instructor will give you a short brief before the flight, they will
carry out the necessary checks, take-off and once the helicopter is
established in level flight let you have control. Your instructor will
then take control of the aircraft for approach and landing then, if you
feel up to it you can have a go at hovering.
You will have just
completed your first lesson towards gaining you pilots license!
Whether you
wish to fly for business or pleasure, we believe that you will find
learning to fly with the Helicopter Centre a fascinating, challenging and rewarding experience.
