Helicopter Awareness

Sport aviation is growing rapidly. But the new sport pilot / light-sport aircraft rules are still a mystery to many flight schools and instructors. To locate a flight school offering sport pilot training and/or light-sport aircraft rentals, click on the "Flight School And Rental Finder" tab above. This is a great place to share ideas on learning to fly, flight schools, costs and anything else related to training.

To ski from them is to love them. I've been Heli-skiing in Ca, Nv, Ut, BC, and Ak. The most exciting was skiing with Dean Cummings
