Thank you, really thinking about becoming a helicopter pilot.

Yes you can however you need a pilot certificate for both.

Can't make money as a private pilot, but most can't afford to put in the hours as a private to get a commercial job. And governments wonder why there is a shortage of pilots!! They've made it too expensive and too hard for anyone but the rich.

I just subscribed as I should have years ago because I’ve been watching your channel for years and I have always really enjoyed and appreciated all of your knowledge about helicopters 🚁 that you have provided and passed along. Thank you much

hi ,since childhood have loved to be apilot but due to funding ,could not do it.But the video is really helpfull.

Very informative and interesting

Thanks for the information

Great video very informative and interesting 👍 God bless.

Plz a question, if someone who is 38 years and has enough money to take an accelerated helicopter training would it help to save time to be more employable person for a commercial purpose, like any helicopter pilot job that you mentioned in one of your previous videos on the channel ? Sorry it’s a kind of complex question but it’s my case and I want to change my career 🌹

Thanks for the information and Vedio

As informative as this video is, to be fair for those looking into the process of how long it takes to get these licenses and what they will be able to do with the license, it's rather misleading to say pilots will be able to just go out and get jobs as a news helicopter pilot, EMS pilot, or firefighting pilot once they have their helicopter CPL. The reality is, even with an ATP cert, nobody is going to talk to you with most of those jobs until you hit 2000 hrs for insurance reasons. That's the ugly truth about it. Until you hit 2000 hours, you can get anywhere between entry level tour flight jobs, cherry drying, rice pollination, tuna boat scouting, SIC if you're lucky in a bigger operation, until you start getting up into the 1000-1500 hour mark. Along the way hopefully you find a position flying a turbine helicopter so you can start logging turbine time. But absolutely no newly minted commercial pilot is going to be going out and flying an EMS chopper, not even SIC. It just doesn't happen because of the liability.... at least not in 2022. There may be a time in the future where that happens, but it's not now and probably won't be for the near future.

good morning captain. Im a Venezuelan 36 year old man right now, but next year ill go to Canada specificly Alberta. And i want to study this career, do you thing its too late for me? Do you have any website to know wich heli pilot school would be better and less expensive for me in that city? Greetings!

Does anyone have any opinions on SUU I think it’s my top choice but I want to make sure it’s a good school. Main reason I’m interested is because my GI bill will cover almost all of my schooling

Does boeng pilot familiar with heli ooeration?

Hey Rick. I’m interested in getting my license to work in medical transports. I’m interested in a school called Helistream in Costa Mesa, Ca. Is this a school you would recommend or are there schools in California you would recommend?

with PVT what kind of helicopters you can fly ?

Why do I keep seeing all these videos where people think that getting your PPL in 40 hours is unheard of? Granted I already had my SEL CPL with instrument rating, but I got my helicopter PPL on my 40th hour. That being said, all five of us in the summer semester completed our helicopter PPL at the 40 hour mark, and three of the five people did not have any flight experience at all. Heck, I was picking up, hovering, taxiing, and setting down without needing my CFI on the controls on my 4th hour. Most of the other guys were doing the same around the 4th-6th hour. Yes it's hard, but not sure why someone would need to still be working on hovering at 15-20 hours. I'm pretty sure most people would have it by then.

Magnífico 👏 👏

I’m 16 and want to be a helicopter pilot but idk if I should go straight to flight school after I graduate or if it’s better to go to college then to flight school. What would you do?

So with PPV, I can't earn any money but can I used customers to subsidise my hours building? I will pay my share of the helicopter hire and get my guests to pay theirs.

hi, I live in the UK and if i go to the USA to get my license and i get it, will it be valid to fly in the UK and Canada? also how long does the private pilots license take to complete and how long does the commercial pilots license take?

Are helicopter pilots in demand? I've always assumed that it would be hard to land a job because of the abundance of pilots.

What if I use my personal licence to take clients out for a spin? can I write it off as a marketing expense while also not legally profiting from it?

Where to do the course? Which school?

I want to learn helicopter and how much does it does??? H125

Only about 50% of newly licensed helicopter pilots are lucky enough to establish a successful career and many of them have second jobs for years while they hold on. Have a backup plan.
