Helicentre Aviation Academy has announced further flight instructor sponsorship opportunities following the success of the program last year, where four CPL(H) holders were awarded sponsorship of their FI(H) training. Successful applicants may commence training as early as April 2024.
Since the launch of its scholarship programs in 2012 the academy has invested over £1m into pilot training scholarships, bursaries and sponsorships. In the past two years alone, six flight instructors have been funded through their FI course, working as full-time instructors gaining valuable experience training the next generation of helicopter pilots.
The 2024 FI(H) sponsorship is open to anyone who currently holds a commercial helicopter pilot licence or is close to attaining their CPL(H). To be eligible to apply, applicants must have the right to live and work in the U.K. and be available to train at any U.K. location and work full-time either at Leicester Airport or London Oxford Airport on completion of training.
The application window opens on Feb. 1, 2024, and closes on March 1, 2024. Successful applicants will be invited to attend selection on the week commencing March 11, 2024, at the Leicester Airport facilities. Applications for this program can be made at flyheli.co.uk/fi-sponsorship.
This press release was prepared and distributed by Helicentre Aviation Academy.
