What is a Helicopter Flight Review?
A Helicopter Flight Review is a periodic evaluation required by CASA (every 2 years below 60 yrs of age) to ensure that licensed pilots maintain their flying skills at a level that complies with current safety standards. The review involves both ground instruction and flight time with a certified instructor to cover various aspects of helicopter operation and safety.
Key components of the review include:
- License and Medical: Check certification and currency.
- Regulatory Compliance: Updating pilots on any changes in aviation laws, operational procedures, and safety regulations.
- Skill Assessment: Evaluating the pilot’s handling of the helicopter, including take-offs, landings, emergency procedures, and navigation.
- Knowledge Refresh: Covering essential theoretical knowledge, such as aerodynamics, weather conditions, and flight planning, to ensure the pilot’s knowledge is current.
- Customized Coaching: Addressing any specific areas where the pilot seeks to improve skills or gain additional confidence.
