About how much are helicopter flying lessons?
i am interesting in possibly taking helicopter lessons. any tips, suggestions, and price ranges?
Helicopter flying is expensive. Most training type helicopters rent for somewhere in the area of about $225-250/hour. Instructor fees run about $35/hr. It will take you probably close to 80 hours of lessons/practice to obtain your license.
One alternative you may wish to consider is obtaining a fixed wing private pilot's license to start with to learn the basics of flight and rules/regulation and then go on to get your helicopter or "Rotary" rating. Although helicopters fly very differently from fixed wing craft, there are some simiarities in principles to know and your overall becoming comfortable in flight. Most fixed wing rental aircraft rent for around $90-125/hr.
Many large airports have helicopter schools. If you look online, you can find more. Just investigate them thoroughly and make sure of their practices and financing. If you just want to fly for fun, then I would recommend staying with a fixed wing unless you're wealthy. If you're looking at a career, go with a good, certified school that will give you all the ratings you need, Commercial, Instrument, maybe Instructor, etc.

Helicopter Flight Dynamics: The Theory and Application of Flying Quali $282.95 The behavior of helicopters is so complex that understanding the physical mechanisms at work in trim, stability and response, and thus the prediction of flying qualities, requires a framework of analytical and numerical modeling and simulation. Good flying qualities are vital for ensuring that mission performance is achievable with safety and, in the first edition of Helicopter Flight Dynamics, a comprehensive treatment of design criteria was presented. In this second edition, the author complements this with a new chapter on degraded flying qualities, drawing examples from flight in poor visibility, failure of control functions, and encounters with severe atmospheric disturbances. Fully embracing the consequences of degraded flying qualities during the design phase will contribute positively to safety. |

Principles of Helicopter Flight $14.71 Recently updated, this comprehensive handbook explains the aerodynamics of helicopter flight, as well as how to perform typical helicopter maneuvers, unlike many aviation training manuals which are strictly how-to guides. Beginning with the basics of aerodynamics, each step of the process is fully illustrated and thoroughly explained—from the physics of helicopter flying and advanced operations to helicopter design and performance—providing helicopter pilots with a sound technical foundation on which to base their in-flight decisions. Containing discussions on the NOTAR (no tail rotor) system, strakes, and frequently misunderstood principles of airspeed and high-altitude operations, this revised edition also includes the latest procedures and regulations from the Federal Aviation Administration. |

Snake Pilot: Flying the Cobra Attack Helicopter in Vietnam $17.55 [Zahn] writes with authority . . . he captures the intensity of moments long since buried in the memories of those who lived them. . . . He has produced a book that is not so much a memoir of events past as a freshly discovered live report from the past. . . . It has lessons to teach the 'battle captains' of today. . . . The glimpse it offers of leaders-as-seen-by-the-led should be of value to anyone who leads the smart, aggressive, competent, self-asured young Mr. Zauns of today. --ARMYFlies the reader into combat with the same elite air cavalry unit portrayed in the film Apocalypse NowBased on audiotapes he recorded during the war and sent home to his family, Randy Zahn's Snake Pilot recounts his experiences flying AH-1 Cobra helicopters during the Vietnam War. First deployed in Vietnam in 1967 and loaded with a formidable arsenal of weaponry, the Cobra was the first helicopter designed from inception as an attack aircraft. It dramatically changed the nature of the war in Vietnam by offering the Army, for the first time, its own powerful and highly accurate weapons platform for close-air-support missions. Randy Zahn arrived in Vietnam shortly before the 1970 U.S. invasion of Cambodia, one of the most impressive demonstrations by the Cobra in the war. He describes his stunning transformation from a naive, middle-class teenager from southern California to a hardened killer during his tour in Vietnam. Unlike the pilots who flew the fast-moving strike jets, Zahn experienced the war up close and personal, witnessing the grisly effects of the Cobra's firepower on enemy soldiers. The author does not glorify killing but rather explains in sharp relief the kaleidoscope of emotions associated with combat: fear, revenge, hate, remorse, pity, and even ecstasy. He captures many of the ironies and nuances inherent in Vietnam, especially during the final years of the conflict. Zahn displays a sensitivity rarely found in memoirs written by battle-hardened warriors. This h@1ŒÌÌÌÌÍÿ¾Úð |
