Helicopter Training / FAA Licence Training

FAST Helicopters can offer flight instruction under the American Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) system. This allows you to train and then obtain an FAA licence without ever leaving the UK.

The FAA licence is globally recognised and many countries operate their entire aviation system based on the FAA regulations. Being FAA rated can open up many flying options that a JAR licence alone cannot.

We are able to offer training and endorsement for Checkride for the following FAA ratings:-
PPL(H), CPL(H), ATPL(H), IR(H), CFI(H), CFII(H) .

Location
Our base in Shoreham, West Sussex (The UK's busiest general aviation airport) provides excellent training facilities.

Fleet
We pride ourselves on one of the most extensive fleet of aircraft, which are available for ab-initio training, PPL(H), CPL(H), FI(R), IR(H), type rating training, and self fly hire.

Capability
Our experience and professionalism is demonstrated by our holding of approvals that are granted to very few training organisations in the country. From an introductory trial lesson to a Commercial Pilot Licence with Instument Rating, FAST Helicopters will guide you all the way.

Training
With our team of highly experienced, professional career instructors and in-house examiners, you can rest assured that at FAST Helicopters we remain committed to providing exceptional standards of helicopter flight training.

Endless Possibilities...
FAST Helicopters are dedicated to helping you realise your ambition with a proven, structured training programme that is tailored to meet individual requirements. Our instructors are always willing to answer questions that may arise, and give extra help on tuition for the self-study of theory examinations where necessary. You will soon begin to gain confidence in your ability to handle the helicopter as well as having developed airmanship and captaincy skills expected of a commercial pilot. You may also choose to progress to an Instrument Rating course and type conversion which are also catered for in our in-house training schools.

The scope of the helicopter is limited only by your imagination…
