Looking to Become a Helicopter Pilot?

Tasmanian Helicopters does not offer initial training for students looking to obtain their helicopter licence.

We recommend contacting a flight training school on the mainland to discuss their current training programs, requirements, and pathways.

The closest schools to Tasmania are in Melbourne, Victoria, where a range of helicopter pilot training options are available.
