Instrument Flight Training For The FAA Instrument Rating Helicopter - Accelerated Helicopter Instrument Flight Training Course

14 Day Accelerated IFR Training Course in a new Robinson R-44

This complete helicopter IFR training course is designed to take the Private Pilot or Commercial Pilot who has logged at least 50 hours of cross-country flight time, as pilot in command, to an IFR rated pilot, including preparing you for the FAA Instrument Rating Knowledge exam and your IFR Practical Test!  As an added bonus you also receive pilot in command time towards the SFAR 73 requirements of Part 61!

Proper IFR training doesn’t have to take a long time!  With experienced CFII flight instructors and an air-conditioned Robinson R44 Raven-II helicopter that is fully equipped with dual Garmin WAAS GPS you receive the right combination to ensure that you will be trained as a safe and proficient Instrument Rated pilot in less time than traditional training models.  You can fly IFR with confidence when you know you’ve been trained by the best!

The instrument rating will expand you hiring potential, enhance you aeronautical decision making capabilities and make you a more proficient pilot.  Indeed many pilots say that the training they receive during their instrument rating training course makes them an all around better pilot.
