As specialist theory instructors, we are aware of what is required by students to study the CASA CPL(H) Theory Syllabus, then successfully pass the seven CASA CPL(H) theory examinations. Many of our students haven’t studied for a long time and are new to the world of aviation which is why all of the concepts are presented to you in an easy to understand format, with patient dedicated instruction.

We have two different study methods available to you. If possible, we highly recommend you attend our Full-Time Ground School Course. Our CPL(H) Full-time Ground School course runs for 11 weeks in total. During this time we cover the seven CPL(H) subjects. You can attend all seven subjects at once, or come along to individual subjects. Please see our Course Schedule for more information. Our Full-Time Ground School course is thorough in content, but as short in duration as possible as we understand the it can be tricky being away from home and work commitments for extended periods of time. You will find the course to be both interesting and very informative and will totally prepare you for the CASA Examinations.

The second method of study is via our Distance Learning Course. We have a very detailed self study package available for students who aren’t able to make it to class and would like to complete their study at home. All of our Distance Learning theory courses include unlimited phone and email course support from our theory instructors so you can ask any questions along the way!

We are often asked if you should do any flying training prior to ground school study. There is no reason why you can’t undertake flying training prior to ground study, however it is important that you don’t get to involved in flying training before completing your ground theory. The obvious advantage of doing your theory course before you complete too much of your flying, is the fact you are much better prepared for each of your training sequences in the air, and you will have a greater overall understanding of essential flying procedures. This ensures you receive the maximum value and benefit from every dollar you spend in the air. While some of our students have completed over 20 hours flying training prior to commencing our course, the majority only have between 1 and 10 hours experience.

Our CPL(H) Full-time Ground School course will also be a valuable introduction to many aspects of the helicopter industry. Not only will you be studying with our professional theory instructors, you will also have the benefit of discussing flight training options and the various flying schools with our staff and other students on your course. If you haven’t already decided where to do your flying training, there is no doubt this experience will place you in the best possible position to select the flying school that meets your personal requirements.

There are many quality helicopter training schools available to you, so make sure you select the one that best suits your training needs and is in a good position to assist you with those important first hours of flying experience after you have obtained your licence. With the right attitude, a common sense approach and lots of hard work, a career as a helicopter pilot is something you can achieve.
