COMBINED FIXED WING/ROTARY TRAINING VERSUS ROTARY COURSE
There is sometimes debate amongst students about the best way to obtain a Commercial Helicopter Licence ie. combined fixed wing/rotary wing course or rotary wing only course. At Chopperline we believe it is best to be able to have a choice. The Combined Rotary Course allows you to benefit by receiving the maximum total flying time, maximum command hours, two licences and considerable cost saving. Most importantly you must be more employable if you can fly both fixed wing and helicopter. You save by learning navigation skills in fixed wing and can dedicate your helicopter flying to perfection of your skills, as you will already be familiar with airway procedures and navigation from your fixed wing flying. The 105 hour course offers you more helicopter hours and for those who have no intention of any fixed wing flying this is an option. Here at Chopperline you have a choice where as with many schools the combined course is not an option.
Flying schools which only promote 105 hr courses often cannot provide the combined course option. Whilst at Chopperline you may choose either option, we genuinely believe the combined course represents the best value.
