If you're Private Pilot<\/strong> helicopter, you can fly whenever you feel like it but only by doing a private use of the helicopter<\/strong>, you will never be able to do paid work. If you're Commercial pilot<\/strong>, you can work as a pilot<\/strong> in any company. There is a big price difference between the license Private helicopter pilot PPL(H)<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and the license Commercial Helicopter Pilot CPL(H)<\/a><\/strong>. But, as we have already explained before, the functions of each one are also very different, in the first you cannot work as a pilot, however, in the second you can.<\/p>\n \u2013 If you choose to be private pilot<\/strong>, the price of the course\u00a0Private helicopter pilot PPL(H)<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0round of the \u20ac18,000 to \u20ac25,000<\/strong>, depending on the company that offers it.<\/p>\n \u2013 If, on the other hand, you want to work as commercial pilot<\/strong>, the course of\u00a0Commercial Helicopter Pilot CPL(H)<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>goes from the 55,000 to 70,000\u20ac<\/strong>.<\/li>\n The minimum age at which you can start taking the helicopter pilot license also varies depending on whether it is Private or Commercial. In the pilot license, both private and commercial, specific exams must be passed to obtain the corresponding medical certificate.<\/p>\n \u2013 In the case of the license\u00a0Private helicopter pilot<\/strong><\/a>, it is necessary Class II medical certificate<\/strong>. This certificate is mandatory only for General Aviation pilots (those who fly as a hobby). Since the holder is not engaged in commercial activities, the certificate is not as restrictive, however, the holder of the medical certificate must be able both mentally and physically to safely exercise the privileges of the relevant license.<\/p>\n \u2013 For the license\u00a0Commercial Helicopter Pilot<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0it is necessary the\u00a0Class I medical certificate<\/strong> . This certificate is a requirement for all pilots involved in Commercial Aviation. This certificate has the most restrictive medical standards. The holder of a medical certificate must be physically and mentally fit to safely exercise the privileges of the relevant license.<\/li>\n As we have already seen, the two licenses are different in almost everything, so the course is also different. <\/p>\n Course to obtain the license\u00a0Private helicopter pilot<\/a><\/strong> Course to obtain the license\u00a0Commercial Helicopter Pilot<\/a><\/strong> This is the big question that everyone who wants to be a helicopter pilot asks.

On the other hand the commercial pilot<\/strong>, can work for pay in a variety of jobs<\/strong>. For example: police pilot, firefighter pilot, rescue pilot, rescue pilot, passenger transport pilot, surveillance helicopter pilot, helicopter flight instructor...<\/li>\n We already know that it is not the same to be private pilot<\/strong> that commercial<\/strong>Therefore, it is not the same fly when you can as a hobby<\/strong>, that make flying your job and spend the day in the air<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n We leave you an infographic to summarize all the information that we have described in this post:<\/p>\n Now you can be a pilot!
