Learn To Fly Helicopters for Simulator Pilots

Considering helicopter lessons from a flight school? You might be surprised by the cost! Helicopter flight training can be significantly more expensive per hour than fixed-wing lessons, often costing thousands of dollars in real aircraft. Gain valuable insight and support your helicopter flying journey with a home flight simulator – a much more affordable option.

This comprehensive course offers the same in-depth lessons at a fraction of the price. Howard guides you through every aspect of helicopter flight, from understanding your controls and settings to mastering basic flight skills and handling emergencies.

We begin our training in the Cabri G2, the default helicopter in Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS), including versions 2020 and 2024. The Cabri G2 is specifically designed for training and boasts a realistic, native helicopter flight model. You'll learn to expertly handle it throughout every phase of flight.

Then, you'll progress to exploring larger, more powerful helicopters! Howard demonstrates a variety of helicopters available in Microsoft's Flight Simulator, encompassing both free and payware options.

While the skills you acquire are transferable to any flight simulator, this course features detailed demonstrations and visuals specifically using the Cabri G2.

By the end of this course, you'll confidently pilot any helicopter you desire within your flight simulator, ready to take to the virtual skies! Learn helicopter flight simulation techniques and elevate your virtual flying experience.
