Plans and Pricing
A Private Pilot License (PPL) is the first stepping stone in rotorcraft training. The FAA minimum requirements for private pilots under part 61 regulations are 40 hours of flight time, 10 hours solo pilot in command (PIC), 20 hours of dual instruction. Part 141 requirements are a minimum of 35 hours. Private pilots are required to hold a third class medical or higher. In addition to your flight training you will have to pass a written exam as well as your checkride. The checkride consists of an oral and practical exam. When you pass your checkride you are presented with your Private Pilot Certificate. Once this certificate is achieved, a private pilot will be able to act as PIC in a helicopter under Visual Flight Rules (VFR).
