Ocean Helicopters, an FAA approved 141 Florida helicopter pilot training school, can offer all licenses and ratings for helicopters. Starting at an initial Private Pilot all the way through to Airline Transport Pilot.
The following is a good break down of what is required for every course.
We provide helicopter pilot training in Florida for all initial courses and also the Add-On courses.
