NO FAA WRITTEN exam required
Turbine Transition Add-On
Bring the aircraft you fly, or are preparing to fly, and receive training shaped around its systems, limitations, equipment, mission, and operating environment. The program is designed for aircraft owners, operators, and professional pilots preparing for a first turbine helicopter, moving to a different turbine platform, or refreshing aircraft-specific skills.
TruFlight can connect you with available turbine experts whose experience spans civilian and military turbine operations. Our team includes Turbine Transition expert and Designated Pilot Examiner David Lewis and Chief Pilot Todd Guison, a former Army Black Hawk pilot. Instructor availability and suitability are confirmed for your aircraft and training goals.
Ground and flight instruction can cover turbine engine theory, aircraft systems, start and shutdown procedures, power management, performance planning, cockpit discipline, and abnormal and emergency procedures. Flight training is conducted in the client's aircraft when the aircraft, documentation, insurance, instructor qualifications, and operating conditions support the requested training.
Commercial turbine options are also available for pilots and operators preparing for charter, utility, external-load, tour, public-service, or other professional missions. We can tailor the syllabus to company procedures, aircraft configuration, pilot experience, and operational objectives rather than forcing every client into a one-size-fits-all package.
