Rotary wing · PPL(H) to CPL(H)
Admissions openHelicopter training for pilots who'd rather land anywhere.
Rotary flying is a different career, not a smaller one: offshore, EMS, tourism, utility, VIP charter and law enforcement. Very few Indian advisors handle it properly. We do.
Licence ladder
From your first hover to a commercial rotary licence.
Helicopter training is hour-intensive early — hovering alone can absorb your first ten hours. Budgeting for that honestly is half the job.
