Higher Ground Helicopters
At
Higher Ground Helicopters, we specialize in training career oriented
pilots by offering a unique program that provides the student with all
the necessary training to meet the needs of an ever growing helicopter
industry, Founders Chad Fath and Benjamin Schenk, began Higher Ground
Helicopters with the intent to increase the standard of helicopter
flight training by creating the Complete Professional Helicopter Career
Program, geared towards working with the schedule of a busy adult and
increasing the educational standards.
The Helicopter Industry
There is a shortage of helicopter pilots in the industry due to the
retirement of the Vietnam era trained helicopter pilots and the
reduction of military training. The increased use of helicopters in
many fields such as Air Medical Service, law enforcement and offshore
oil transport has created an additional demand for qualified helicopter
pilots. All providing a great potential for someone wanting to start a
new career. The average student can begin working as a helicopter pilot
in as little as 10-18 months, with a starting earning potential of
$40-$45,000 a year. With our financing options, OAC, all training may
be covered with little to no out of pocket costs and deferred payments
until after completion.
Training At Higher Ground Helicopters
We
are able to provide our student pilots with the highest level of
training available through the use of state of the art equipment. The
Fly-It Simulator is used to familiarize the student with the flight
controls, which reduces the training time for pilots and increases
safety. Robinson Helicopters are the most widely used training
helicopters in the world due to its reduced operating cost and safety
features making it the leader in the industry.
With the use of
the Fly-It Simulator and Robinson Helicopters, we can offer a training
program at the lowest cost to the student with maximum safety.

Ground Helicopters offer financing options. Depending upon OAC,
