Helicopter Flight Instruction
Enterprise Helicopters provides flight training
for all helicopter pilot ratings, but we specialize in advanced
maneuvers for the Flight Instructor Rating (CFI-R), precision
touch-down auto-rotations are an everyday event. Even though
touch-down autos are only required for the CFI check ride, EVERY
pilot
should be comfortable with this maneuver.
We also provide flight training for police surveillance, pipe-line patrol, and agricultural crop dusting techniques. How to:
- Hover out of ground effect successfully and “settling with power” demos.
- Zero airspeed torque turn at max. Gross weight.
- Land on a nurse truck.
- Reverse (backward) take-offs.
- Plan a spray pattern.
How much does this cost? Every course is tailored to your specific need and ability. The current rate is $350 per flight hour.

Auto Rotation
Learning the procedure to follow during an engine failure is only half the process. Learning how to safely land the craft is the other half. Enterprise Helicopters is one of the very few helicopter pilot training companies that will teach auto rotation to include an actual and safe landing. If you already have a minimum private helicopter license contact us today to schedule your training in this life-saving procedure.
