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.

Requirements

Must be at least 18 years old
Hold a private pilot certificate
Pass a FAA written test
Pass a FAA oral and practical test
Obtain a 2nd class medical certificate

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.
