CPL(H) The course of theoretical instruction – commercial pilot (helicopter) is intended for those interested in training to obtain a commercial pilot licence CPL(H). To start the course it is necessary to hold a PPL(H).
The PPL(H) Private Pilot (Helicopter) theory course is designed for those interested in training for the PPL(H) – Private Pilot Licence or LAPL(H) – Light Helicopter Pilot Licence. The PPL(H) theory examination is a prerequisite for obtaining the PPL(H) – Private Pilot Licence or LAPL(H) – Light Helicopter Pilot Licence.
The PPL(H) private helicopter pilot licence entitles the pilot to conduct private, recreational or sport flights in the helicopter for which he/she has a type rating in daylight and in ground visibility. The licence holder is authorised to make flights for private purposes only, may take passengers on board but cannot fly for remuneration.
NIGHT(H) – The night rating (helicopter) is a necessary rating for a professional pilot, but is also suitable for private helicopter pilots. Graduates of the NIGHT(H) – Night Rating (Helicopter) course will increase their knowledge and skills in instrument flying, which they will appreciate especially in sudden deterioration of weather conditions, and will increase their piloting skills for low visibility, twilight and night flying.
The CPL(H) commercial helicopter pilot licence is a significant milestone in the professional career of a helicopter pilot. In practice, this means that you can now fly commercially for pay and apply for a job as a helicopter pilot.
FI(H) – Flight Instructor (Helicopter) is designed for those interested in the job of a helicopter flight instructor. Successful completion of the training results in obtaining the FI(H) – Flight Instructor (Helicopter) qualification with PPL(H), LAPL(H) training authorization.
The private pilot licence for “light” helicopters entitles the pilot to conduct private, recreational or sport flights in single-engine helicopters with a maximum approved take-off weight of 2 000 kg or less and with a maximum of 3 passengers on board.
The licence holder shall be limited to flying only the type of helicopter for which he/she has been approved during training or has been retrained in a flight school for another type of helicopter.
With an LAPL, you may only fly during daylight hours and when the ground is visible.
The PPL(H) private helicopter pilot licence entitles the pilot to conduct private, recreational or sport flights in the helicopter for which he/she has a type rating in daylight and in ground visibility. The licence holder is authorised to make flights for private purposes only, may take passengers on board but cannot fly for remuneration.
The type rating for the Guimbal Cabri G2 helicopter entitles the pilot to fly the Guimbal Cabri G2 helicopter. The aim of the training course is to acquire the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to obtain the Guimbal Cabri G2 type rating.
The Eurocopter EC120B type rating entitles the pilot to fly the Eurocopter EC120B helicopter. The aim of the training course is to acquire the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to obtain the Eurocopter EC120B type rating.
