Helicopter pilot training in not inexpensive and therefore it is really important that you receive the most from your flying lessons. Each flying lesson is preceded by a flight brief and then approximately one hours flying. This is then followed by a debrief. The cost of flying lessons depends on which aircraft you are learning on. Some of our students learn on the Robinson 44. The cost for your PPL(H) course is the amount of hours it takes you to learn plus a small fee for sitting 7 ground exams. All the books and equipment come in one bag and costs around £260.00 inc vat. The price list for the different aircraft that we use for helicopter flying lessons can be found on this website on the price list page. Once you have completed your last helicopter flying lesson then it is time for you to sit a Licence Skill Test with our examiner.
