Professional helicopter flight training with Ardmore Helicopters
 

The only thing better than flying helicopters is getting paid for it. A commercial helicopter licence allows you to fly for 'hire or reward' and gain employment as a professional helicopter pilot. We have a great reputation for training pilots to a high standard and for giving you the experience and knowledge that will help get your career underway. Ardmore Helicopters Limited provides personalised training in a relaxed but professional environment. Many of our students have gone on to build successful flying careers and we are happy to put you in touch with them.

You'll need to gain a Class 1 NZ medical certificate and pass six CPL written exams which we offer courses for in association with Ardmore Flying School. We can also help arrange some student loans. A CPL requires a minimum 150 hours of total flight experience. Along the way you'll learn many advanced flight techniques and you can gain ratings on different helicopters. Welcome to your career. You wont regret training with us.
