Commercial Pilot
The Commercial Pilot helicopter course is intended for those
who want to make flying helicopters into a career. There
are a number of different jobs available
flying as a professional pilot including; flight instruction, power-line/pipeline
patrol, emergency medical services, aerial firefighting, aerial logging, law
enforcement, etc.
Must be at least 18 years old
Hold a private pilot certificate
Pass a FAA written test

Course Outline
In our commercial pilot course you will fine tune all of your flying skills
to meet a commercial pilot standard. These skills will be the basis for everything
you will do as a professional pilot. After completion of the course you will
be able to make money as a pilot. Most people will move on to our Flight
Instructor course. The reason for this is that most employers require 500
to 1000 hours of flight time before they will hire you. As a flight instructor
you will build time teaching others to fly, while working toward your dream
job at the same time.
