Private Pilot Licence PPL(H) programme

No matter what your background or age is, if you have the interest of learning to fly a helicopter, you are on the right way. A successful completion of PPL(H) training and a private pilot licence grants you the right to operate a helicopter for personal use.

 

The training programme consists of theoretical and practical parts. You will study a number of theoretical subjects which will help you to pass CAA exams. Practical skills will be acquired on a single-engine aircraft (Cabri G2) under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). The duration of the training may vary depending on individual performance and weather conditions. Usually it takes from 3 to 6 months.
