Unlike the R22 lessons, which are conducted in the 2-seat Robinson
R22 helicopter, this lesson is conducted in the four-seat Robinson
R-44. On this lesson you can also take up to two friends along
for the ride.
This lesson is set up with 30 minutes of ground school conducted
at the helicopter explaining how the helicopter flies, what each
control does, how to read the gauges, what to look for in conducting
the pre-flight inspection and making sure the helicopter is safe
to fly.
After ground instruction is complete, you will take to the air
on a 30 or 60 minute flight lesson, during which you will take
the controls with the help of your flight instructor to see what
it is like to pilot the helicopter. This flight is usually conducted
at Long Beach Airport and over the local coast line. Students get
the chance to experience most flight conditions, including straight
and level flight, climbs, turns and descents, plus the most memorable,
hovering.
With the ground school and flight combined, you will have a basic
understanding of how to fly the helicopter.
There is no obligation for you to continue lessons, the lesson
special is offered to give you insight into helicopter flight.
The flight time received does count towards your license should
you wish to continue lessons toward a private or commercial license.
