Pilots license?

B2k4E · 10-10-2011, 04:59 PM

Anybody on here have a pilots license of any sort? Im kind of interested in a private rotary wing license and wondering what steps I could take to get it.

Obviously this is an after college pursuit, but I think it'd be badass to have a Bell 412 helicopter, especially since the Bell-Textron factory is located here in Amarillo.

Make sure and focus equal parts on both take off and landing; so ya don't toss any red flags

---------

always wanted to do copters, it was my 2nd choice after jets.

PPL here, but only for single/dual engine airplanes

.

You can make some calls to airports around you or search the internet to see which airports/companys have flight instructors.

Just a warning; obtaining your PPL for helicopters will run you a pretty penny ( lower-mid 5-digit range and more).

I simply told him that; "I don't know, I only work on American vehicles." He told me that was the best damn answer he ever heard.
