Training
You do not need any flying experience to undertake the training – we will teach you everything.
A PPL(H) Private Pilot Licence will allow you to fly solo non-commercial flights in helicopters. The PPL(H), or Private Pilot Licence, is nothing more than a tourist pilot’s licence which is very often the first step on the road to becoming a professional pilot. It is therefore a key step in starting your adventure in the sky and is usually an opportunity to gain further flying skills and experience.
The trainee must be at least 16 years old and hold a valid Class II medical certificate.
The trainee does not need to know English. All courses and examinations are held in Polish. Knowledge of English will come in handy if you are flying abroad. If you are thinking of flying abroad, you must have an entry on your licence confirming language proficiency, at least at ICAO Operational Level 4.
The high quality of our training is due not only to our state-of-the-art equipment, but above all to the extensive experience of our instructors and lecturers.

Yes, we have flexible timings and we approach each client individually to make the training process as effective as possible. Lectures are held regularly and you can join the course at any time.
The training time is determined by the commitment of the trainee and the weather conditions. Theoretical training is scheduled for 9 days, while practical training is a minimum of 45 hrs. On average, the entire training can be completed in 6 months.
The cost of theory is paid in full before the start of the training, while payment for the practical part can be spread in instalments.

A trainee holding a pilot’s licence for another category of aircraft, except balloons, gets credit for 10% of the total flight time as PIC of that aircraft, up to a maximum of 6 hours.

Many people are nervous about flying in a helicopter before boarding. In our experience, almost everyone disembarks with a smile on their face at the end of the flight. Flying is new to most people and can be stressful. Helicopters generally provide a less turbulent flight than light aircraft. You definitely need to know your limits and you can’t force yourself to fly. If you’re a little unsure or hesitant, give it a try, you’ll love it!
