The North West Service, FTO Helicopter School based in North West Italy, offer main courses and licences to become a private or professional pilot. Presentation of school and company:As we operate exclusively in the sector of training and provide our students with an individual service 365 days a year, the courses,which can be organized either one to one or in groups,begin at the moment the applicant enrols. In Italy, as well as in the rest of Europe, most helicopter realities join avation work with the activity of a school, favouring the work activities in the summer and the teaching activities in the winter. This is all to the disadvantage of the students as they have to planning the activity from October, to April.

THE FORMATIVE PATH
We individuate and organize courses for the specific needs of each individual student: from the private CPL(H) licence for those who need to work with a barycentric hook (work in the mountains or forest firefighting) to the ATPL(H) and the IR, for those who wish to transport passengers, or HEMS.
The prospective student is given advice on the best path to follow,taking into consideration his or her expectations,characteristics and requirements.
THE DECISION TO FOLLOW A HELICOPTER FLYING COURSE INVOLVES AN IMPORTANT INVESTMENT;BOTH IN TERMS OF TIME AND MONEY: A CAREFUL EVALUATION OF THE PATH ONE INTENDS TO FOLLOW IS NECESSARY,TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THAT MAKING THIS CHOICE FOR A FUTURE CAREER IMPLIES PASSION,SACRIFICE AND DEDICATION.
