The Commercial Pilot Program is oriented toward the student who wishes to make a career as a helicopter pilot. The syllabus is designed to prepare you for the practical demands of professional flying. The certificate you obtain at the end of this course will qualify you to fly most of the commonly-used civilian helicopters.

PHASE I (Private Pilot)
This phase will be conducted as outlined in the Private Pilot Program. The main advantages to obtaining a Private Pilot Certificate are that you may carry passengers and that the time you spend flying with your instructor can be recorded in your logbook as Pilot In Command (PIC) time.

PHASE II (Solo experience)
During this phase your instructor will concentrate on two areas as you build-up your PIC time to the required 100 hours. The first of these is congested-area flying. Together you will make several flights through the busy airspace surrounding the Orlando International Airport. This type of flying puts considerable demands on the pilot, both in terms of flying skills and aeronautical knowledge.

The second area on which your instructor will concentrate is off-airport operations. You will learn the techniques of pinnacle approaches as used when landing on a mountain top or on a roof top helipad. You will also practice confined area landings. These include forest clearings, narrow streets, and other situations where the flight-path is severely restricted by obstacles.

PHASE III (Pre-checkride)
The last few hours of training will be spent with your instructor, preparing for the specific requirements of the flight test.

FAA REQUIREMENTS
The minimum number of flight hours required for the Commercial Certificate is 150 and it is reasonable to expect that you will attain the required standard to pass the checkride with that number of hours.

GROUND SCHOOL
This class prepares you for the written exam and also introduces you to commerical operations through guest speakers, presentations and distributed material. Essentially, the Commercial Pilot written examination is based on the same material as the Private Pilot test, but a higher standard. The additional detail and depth of knowledge will be attained through one-on-one tuition with your instructor, combined with a program of home study.

MEDICAL REQUIREMENTS
