Just bring yourself! You don't need any flying experience or an aeroplane licence to fly a helicopter. At Helibiz we pride ourselves on providing the highest quality individual helicopter flight training. To achieve this we train one on one to ensure that our students get the most value out of their effort - and you are not lost in the crowd. Our training group facilities at Helibiz Mackay are located alongside our sister company Whitsunday Helicopters at the Mackay Airport. Training here will give you exposure to a working helicopter environment and the opportunity to learn in ‘controlled airspace' with immediate access to our unique training areas. As a personal school, here to train each individual to be a professional helicopter pilot, we pride ourselves on our ability to tailor our training to you! Every student is different and brings individual abilities. Focusing on your individual abilities allows us to adapt your training to assist you in reaching your goals. It's through this effort that Helibiz instructors have gained our reputation of training to the highest standard. Beyond the syllabus we focus on ‘job readiness' and individually tailor training towards the intended initial career path of the student. Further opportunities arise to under training to experience offshore ship/deck landings with the professional crew at Whitsunday Helicopter Group.
