FAA Private Pilot Aeronautical Experience Requirements
Must log a minimum of 40 hours flight time in a helicopter, which includes the following:
20 hours of dual flight instruction, including:
3 hours of dual cross-country flight
3 hours of dual night flight training, including:
A cross-country flight of over 50 nautical mile total distance
10 takeoffs and landings at night to a full stop (with each landing involving a flight in the traffic pattern) at an airport
10 hours of solo flight time, including:
3 hours of cross-country time, including:
One solo cross-country 3 hours of cross-country flight of at least 75 nautical miles total distance, with landings at a minimum of three points, and one segment of the flight being a straight-line distance of at least 25 nautical miles between the takeoff and landing locations, and
Three takeoffs and three landings to a full stop (with each landing involving a flight in the traffic pattern) at an airport with an operating control tower
3 hours in a helicopter in preparation for the FAA practical test within the 60-day period preceding the date of the test
The bottom line of the FAA regulations is that they require a minimum of 40 hours of flight training, as well as a passing grade of 70% or better on a written examination, successfully passing an FAA oral examination and a flight test. Due to the volume of knowledge and the level of skill required, very few students are ready to take the test at 40 hours of flight training. A more realistic estimate is 50 to 70 hours of flight training and 20 to 40 hours of ground training.

Flight Training
The Commercial Pilot flight training course is divided into three phases:
PHASE IThis phase will introduce you to the Commercial Pilot flight Standards you will be required to obtain. You will learn the skills needed to become a successful Commercial Pilot and the different techniques used while flying commercially. Flight training will initially concentrate on dual day and night cross country flying as well as local night flying to prepare the student for their solo experience.
The Commercial Pilot flight training course is divided into three phases:
PHASE I
PHASE II (Solo experience)
During this phase your instructor will concentrate on two areas as you build-up your PIC time to the required 100 hours. The first of these is congested-area flying. Together you will make several flights through the busy airspace surrounding the Airport. This type of flying puts considerable demands on the pilot, both in terms of flying skills and aeronautical knowledge.
The second area on which your instructor will concentrate is off-airport operations. You will learn the techniques of pinnacle approaches as used when landing on a mountain top or on a roof top helipad. You will also practice confined area landings. These include forest clearings, narrow streets, and other situations where the flight-path is severely restricted by obstacles.
PHASE III (Pre-check ride)
The last few hours of training will be spent with your instructor, preparing for the specific requirements of the flight test.

Ground School
The detail and depth of knowledge will be attained through one-on-one tuition with your instructor, combined with a program of home study. You will receive a minimum of 20 hours of ground instruction in preparation for your Commercial exams. You can figure on spending 1 hour of ground for every 2 hours of flight training. If you already hold a Commercial Pilot (Airplane) Certificate, you will not have to take another written test for helicopters.
We require that all of our student’s successfully pass their written examination prior to starting their solo experience flight time. It is our goal to insure that all of our students pass their written examination with a passing grade of 85% or better. We have developed a training strategy that allows our students to achieve this level of success, time and time again...

TURBINE TRANSITION
This course is designed to provide a
helicopter-rated pilot with the knowledge
and skills required to competently operate
a turbine-powered helicopter.
Experience in turbine helicopters will enhance
a pilot’s hiring potential.
The Turbine Transition Program is the excellent opportunity for a rated pilot to transition from
a piston to a turbine helicopter.The course includes the study of the systems, the engine and the flight manual with its procedures, normal and emergency maneuvers both on ground and in flight.
The Certificate achieved at the completion
of the course is a valid document for insurance requirement purposes, personal curriculum
and it is a great proof of achievement.
Medical Requirements
Prior to your beginning your solo flight experience you must obtain a Class II Medical Certificate. It is our belief that you should obtain your Medical Certificate as soon as you decide to train for your Commercial Pilot Rating. In the unlikely event that you are not able to pass the medical exam, you will not have spent your time and money on training. Your instructor will assist you in finding an appropriately-certified physician to administer the necessary examination...
