@JETZcorp
@JETZcorp Год назад
@@jayasmrmore3687 Yes, but last time I looked at rental rates in my area, a plane was $150/hr and a helicopter was $250/hr. Getting my fixed-wing PPL was already ruinously expensive; I simply am not rich enough to fly helicopters. Of course both CAN swallow unlimited money, up to and including buying your own F-16. Fixed-wing just has a lower first rung.

Hello I almost came to college there when I got out of the Corps in 2020. I'm in the army now and about to get out again in 2024. Is there someone I can talk to to compare civilian pilot school vs military pilot school (I'm on the fence on staying in or not and want to find out which I would really prefer)

Hey Jeffrey, in order to fly in the United States, you’ll need approval from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). You’ll also need to live here, in Utah, for the flight training. If you’d like more information on that, you can contact us at aviation@suu.edu or at 435-586-7862

im about to go down the heli route. Ngl, the thought of flying in an r22 until i get my hours up scares the sh*t outta me. is it something that you get used to?
@SUUAviation
@SUUAviation 11 месяцев назад
Hi Jordan! The R22 is a popular training craft (We have one that our Aircraft Maintenance students use for training!). Our students get most of their helicopter training in the bigger cousin of the R22, the R44 (along with training in our larger Bell helicopters). In regards to the R44, we have found that students start getting more comfortable once they get into the 10+ hour mark, but that will vary depending on the student.
@Helipilotgreg
@Helipilotgreg 3 месяца назад
That feeling goes away quickly. The R22 is a safe and fun ship to fly once you learn how to make it do what you want.

Hey Justin, tuition costs will vary depending on a number of factors. It’ll change if you’re in-state or out-of-state, as well as what scholarships you qualify for. Here’s the link to our admissions page where you can find the different cost breakdowns. www.suu.edu/admissions/

@SUUAviation
@SUUAviation 3 года назад
That’s great! You won’t be able to receive a license until you’re 17 years old, but we recommend taking an intro flight or two to get some time in the aircraft. As for now, continue to do well in school, so that when you’re ready to start applying, you’ll be in the best position as possible.

@JustAnotherTowerClimber Well, because helicopter jobs are much harder to get,...especially if you want one that pays more than a burger flipper.
@lookingforwookiecopilot
@lookingforwookiecopilot 2 года назад
@JustAnotherTowerClimber Well, I just interviewed for a job that required 500 hours and paid $15 bucks an hour, and he told me that 40 people applied for that one slot. If you have over 2,000-3,000 hours I hear you can make a decent living, and there do seem to be a ton more HEMS jobs than pilots if you have the hours. Entry level pilots though, are a dime a dozen. So competition is fierce, jobs are scarce, and pay is low,...way low!
@lookingforwookiecopilot
@lookingforwookiecopilot 2 года назад
@JustAnotherTowerClimber If the school who trains you hires you as a flight instructor, then you teach your way to 1,000, then try to get an entry level turbine job flying tours (also very competative) and do that until you have 2,000-3,000 hours. If they don't hire you? You get in your car and drive all over the country trying to convince every single flight school you find that you are a better choice than the other 300 guys they've interviewed.
