Australian Helicopter Academy

These guys train you to employ you, not just pass your flight test. Very high level of training with experienced instructors who cater the training to real world scenarios, meaning you're ready to go the second you pass your test. Great training environment at the non-controlled Kununurra airport - no waiting for ATC clearance and minimal traffic, which means more time flying and less time burning money waiting. They may cost a little more than other schools but no where else in Austrlia is going to give you as high a chance of employment straight after passing your licence. I got offered a job the day I passed my test and am still working for them 4 years on.

AHA is hands down the best flight training school in the country. After having trained at other schools before making the move to AHA I could not be happier. Nick and the team are highly experienced instructors all with 1000's of hours of real world commercial flying. You're not just learning to fly , you're also learning the skills you will need to be a successful commercial pilot on completion of your flight test. Doing you're training in Kununurra is great as it is all scenario based and not having to wait for ATC clearances will save you a fortune in the long run. They're not just training people to pass their flight test, they are training pilots to employ.

Best Flight school in Australia, hands down! Nick and the team are extremely knowledgeable, with a lot of experience. They train you to a very high standard and don't cut corners on the way there. Kununurra is an uncontrolled airport. This pretty much means, as soon as you takeoff you're into training instead of having to wait for clearances. You're also training in a commercial operation which exposes you to what working will be like. Do yourself a favour and make the move to AHA, you won't regret it.

AHA has given me the best start to my aviation career by providing the highest level of standards in both theoretical and practical components of my commercial pilot licence. All the instructors at AHA are very experienced and knowledgable, providing real world training. Training at AHA also gives you exposure to a commercial operation, and there is even the opportunity to gain employment with their sister company Helispirit. This has to be the best helicopter school in Australia and I can't recommend them enough to anyone wanting to get their helicopter licence.
