The PPL(H) is the foundation for all your future flying, whether that be recreational, private ownership or commercial purposes. It is the basic qualification that all helicopter pilots achieve first and it opens up the world of helicopter flying to you. The PPL(H) is a qualification recognised in most countries throughout the world and allows you to take anyone flying with you as long as you are not getting paid for it.
Training begins ensuring you can safely perform all the basic flight manoeuvres and procedures. You will learn and practice take offs, landings, circuits, and radio work whilst building your confidence to your first solo flight. Between solo flights you will fly with your instructor who will introduce you to the advanced manoeuvres and the principles of cross-country navigation – flying from one airfield to another. You will conduct some solo cross country navigation exercises and then in the final stages your instructor assists in refining your skills in preparation for the practical examination.
There is no minimum or maximum age, but you must be 16 before going solo and 17 before you can apply for your licence.
