Professional Helicopter Pilot Studies

Just as important as the exams is the interview panel, and this is the book for those who want to deal with both – its purpose is to help you become a professional, for which the exams are but a step on the way – doing the bare minimum to pass them makes you ill-prepared to be a pilot, which is not fair to future passengers and painfully obvious to employers (and interviewers) who certainly expect you to have more than a basic knowledge.

In fact, there’s a lot in its pages you don’t get taught in flying school, and a lot you should be taught, were it not for time constraints – many professional tips and tricks have been included to help make your transition to being a working pilot as easy as possible. >> Order now
