Fell in to flying by accident back in 2017, I was 48, started in a Hughes269 ( an amazing little helicopter and an amazing instructor) moved up yo a R44 and then to an EC120b just last week the whole journey has been unbelievable, next ATPL just for fun. WHO KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN?????

NETWORKING in general is my personal best tip to new pilots. but i guess it applies to lots of other profession too. All the jobs I ever gotten in aviation industry is trough knowing someone that I never would have expected to turn out as a reference.

PT- Out of all the helicopter channels I browse you're by far the best when it comes to outlining the, perhaps, less sexy part of becoming a professional pilot. Always appreciate the advice and encouragement on how to get into the industry. Thanks for taking the time to pass on your experience. Cheers. I'm a totally newbie in the Heli world but I do have a thought for those folks interested in Law Enforcement. I'm not sure if it's true of most of the U.S. but here in Nevada it seems that the police almost exclusively recruit pilots from within the department. So unless you're an established police officer it's unlikely that you'll be able to get into the police pilot program. At least that's what I've been told by a couple of officers that are training at the same school where I'm based.

Great video! Had my first day in flight school today! Excited for the industry!! Thanks for all tips!

I got accepted to flight school and even got a flight spot, but then the money part fizzled out... I was going to cosign with my dad for a loan but he got cold feet and backed out, so I had to drop the flight lab. I was considering joining the military to qualify for the gi bill, but I feel like that's joining the military for the wrong reason. I have enough money to finish my bachelor's degree and from there, hopefully I can save up for a few years until I can pay for it all. I already got my medical in advance so I know I'm medically qualified.... It's just figuring out the funds. My school (southern utah university) is definitely on the more expensive side, but includes nvg training, long line training, turbine engine time, and is the highest collegiate flight school in the US. On top of that it comes with a degree to make you more marketable, but yeah it's just so expensive! I'm not giving up and I appreciate these videos, they're really motivational

Hey, great video as usual! As a flight student, I really appreciate that you do these kind of videos. I am originally from Germany and currently doing my training in the US. The helicopter Job market in Germany sadly is very limited. Is it possible for me to get hired by an American company and how exactly would that work? Do I need to have a Visa before I even apply or will the company help me obtain one, once they think I fit their position? Is it even realistic for me to be able to work im the US Long term? I have an F-1 Visa but that expires in 3 years.

Great Video! I took my first flight a week ago and it was absolutely awesome! Quick question... where do you find your b-roll clips of helicopters? Did you shoot them all yourself or do you find them somewhere else?

Thank you for all info! I'm a Mi8 and Kamov32 Co-pilot. And i want to become SAR pilot in Canada. So, i will go to BC and find "that hangar". P.S. Box of donuts is a relay good idea)

Daily dose of motivation thank you so much , only downside for you sir is the heat in wild Fire the rest is lit according to me 🤣🤣

Do you have any more information about the Alpine junior pilot programme?

Interesting video thanks …..no artificial horizon in helicopters ?

Hello, I'm seriously considering aviation as a career path and was wondering if you could perhaps give some insight into the steps to take to get to not knowing where to start to flight school. This would be great hearing it from someone in the field. Thanks

Are helicopter cockpits louder than aeroplane cockpits.I have heard helicopter pilots gets hearing loss at after some flying hours becaz of loud noise inside the heli cockpit..

In my country police pilots are police officers. They don't hire civilians. SAR is done by the Navy only.

What I want to understand is why the engine starts to turn but the rotor doesn't? for turbine engine. And why the engine starts and hir rpm fast and totor starts slowly and his rpm not same as engine? For helicopter that use normal engine? Can someone explain to me or give me some reference to learn from? Thanks.

There is no better channel than yours! I have a lot of questing that i would love for you to help, please?

Do you think starting at age of 39 is too late?
