Follow your dream to a private pilot’s licence

There’s nothing quite like flying a helicopter for the first time. Taking over the controls and getting a feel for how this incredible machine operates and moves through the air.

If you’ve already experienced this thrill, perhaps during one of our trial lesson experiences, then you might have thought about taking this interest further and turning it into a passion. Many of the students training with us for their private pilot’s licence started in just the same way via our R22 and R44 helicopter trial lessons, which are the perfect introduction. Many caught the bug and never looked back, starting on the journey to mastering helicopter flying.

The PPL(H)

The PPL(H) licence is perhaps the most important helicopter licence as it equips you with all the key skills and knowledge along with the experience needed to fly independently. It also opens up a new, exciting world of possibilities. Fancy flying your friends and family away for an exhilarating day out in the UK or even Europe? With your own private helicopter licence, this possibility becomes a reality.

And, if you need a little inspiration, well, here’s just a few of our students who are pursuing that very same dream by training for their PPL(H). This includes Andy, who has completed his first circuit solo, a first solo hover for Jan, and a first solo navigation flight for Linda – just a few of the accomplishments that you’ll achieve on your journey to becoming a private pilot.

There’s no better place than to experience a trial lesson or train for your PPL(H) licence than with Central Helicopters. Find out more and talk to our team on 01664 823 846.
