Gaining your Commercial Pilot Licence for Helicopters [CPL(H)] means you can now put your licence to use and accept hire or reward for your flying.

Elite Helicopters conducts the CPL(H) modular course, which is a programme of flying training for those who have already successfully undertaken the theoretical training, ground examinations and logged the appropriate number of flying hours.

Students also have the benefit of learning in a commercial environment, as Elite Helicopters is one of the largest commercial helicopter operators in the country.

The course requires a minimum of 30 hours to be flown (35 if you do not hold an approved night qualification) and can be conducted in a timeframe to suit the individual, however it is recommended to be carried out over a period of weeks rather than months.

Before you commence the flight-training programme you will need to meet several criteria, which are detailed in the CPL(H) brochure download
