Helicopter Pilot Preferences: Large or Small Aircraft?

Helicopter Pilot Preferences: Large or Small Aircraft?

Every professional pilot has a preference as to the type of helicopter they prefer to fly. There are obvious advantages to each depending upon the job you’re doing. Certain jobs require the maneuverability of a small helicopter and others require the power and size of a huge bird. The feeling of flying a Relentless 525 as opposed to the feeling of flying a 206 are like night and day. The two flight experiences require different training and a host of important considerations. Upper Limit Aviation (1-855-HELIEDU) can train professional helicopter pilots so that they may find out what their favorite helicopter to fly is.

One of the great things about training for many helicopter pilots is the feeling of falling in love with your equipment. It happens to every pilot. For many pilots, it is the equipment they train on. Those formative steps taken on the path to becoming a professional helicopter pilot are indelible to some. While others post a picture of their dream chopper on the inside of their locker, promising themselves that they’ll find the job that allows them to fly that specific bird. Ag pilots and EMS pilots are going to be flying two totally different types of helicopters.
