FI(H) – Flight Instructor (Helicopter) is designed for those interested in working as a helicopter flight instructor. Any pilot with a Private (PPL) or Commercial (CPL) Helicopter Pilot license can become a Helicopter Flight Instructor FI(H), provided they have the appropriate flight experience and theoretical knowledge for different types of pilot training. This includes being an instructor for private pilot training, instrument flight and night training, up to a commercial pilot instructor. The successful completion of the training results in obtaining the FI(H) – Flight Instructor (Helicopter) qualification, with the authorization to conduct PPL(H) and LAPL(H) training.
Holders of an instructor license on another type of aircraft (for example, airplane) may credit their theoretical training as follows:
25 hours towards the requirement for teaching methodology and instructional techniques, and
55 hours towards the requirement for technical theoretical instruction
Graduates of the FI(H) – Flight Instructor (Helicopter) can start a career in aviation with just a Private Helicopter Pilot License PPL(H). As a flight instructor, you will gain the necessary flying experience required for subsequent professional pilot training, while also having the opportunity to earn money during your studies.

The price you will have to pay to learn to fly and obtain a pilot’s license varies from person to person and depends on many factors. The price should not be the main factor in deciding where to get your pilot’s license. When it comes to flight training, cheap is rarely good.
Basic factors affecting the cost of training:
Your goals in flying have a significant impact on how your overall flight training will be conducted. If you want to fly only recreationally, training in an aircraft with lighter avionics will be significantly cheaper than compared to a businessman or future professional pilot.
The price of pilot training for individual pilot licenses is set in connection with the number of flight hours in the curriculum, the time of ground preparations, and theoretical instruction in the classroom. Further, it is necessary to count additional expenses for landing and other airport fees and fees for exams at authorities and payments for obtaining necessary permits for training.
