Mont Blanc Hélicoptère Grenoble is an organisation approved by the Direction Générale de l’Aviation Civile (French Civil Aviation Authority) and offers a range of training courses to suit your budget and schedule. From initiation to private pilot training to night flying and type rating training, we have five helicopters at your disposal as well as a facility entirely dedicated to learning how to fly a helicopter.
Before beginning your training to become a private helicopter pilot, we advise you to undertake an introductory flight. This initial contact with the machine an ideal approach and allows the trainee to quickly become aware of the pleasure and finesse of piloting a helicopter. This initial flight can subsequently be counted as part of your training.
The ‘Pilot for a day’ course allows you to go further than the discovery flight without having to prepare for a private pilot licence. It already shows the student’s initial progress and allows them to immerse themselves for a day in the world of helicopters. The pilot instructor, who is also a professional pilot, will be right there with you, ready to answer all your questions.
Mont Blanc Hélicoptères Grenoble offers a variety of personalised training courses that can be tailored to suit your schedule and budget. These courses are given all year round by professional pilot instructors.
PPL-H Licence holder privileges: private helicopter pilots may perform the role of pilot in command without remuneration on any helicopter for which they are qualified, whether or not it carries passengers.
After obtaining a private pilot licence (PPL-H) and a period of “maturation”, you will be able to access professional pilot training.
Practical course:
The practical courses always consist of a briefing, a pre-flight visit, the flight and a debriefing. This method makes it possible to optimise and organise the lessons according to the difficulties or facilities encountered. The trainee must complete a minimum of 35 hours of flight, 20 hours of VFR, 10 hours of VSV / 5 hours for holders of a valid IR(A), and 5 hours of night flight training (except for holders of night flight clearance).
