Integrated Helicopter Airline Transport Pilot with Instrument Rating (IR) Course

Integrated ATPL Course with IR

The objective of the ATPL(H)/IR integrated course is to train pilots to the level of proficiency necessary for the issue of a CPL(H)/IR ready for any mission in the labour market.

Applicants may be admitted to training either as ab initio students, or as holders of a PPL(H) issued in accordance with ICAO Annex I.

This course is designed to equip the student with the knowledge and practical experience to work as a Helicopter Pilot/Copilot in a professional environment in VFR and IFR conditions in multi-turbine helicopters.

Upon completion of the course the student receives a Commercial Helicopter Pilot License CPL(H) with the theoretical part ATPL(H)/IR recognized by EASA | European Aviation Safety Agency. This allows him/her to work as Pilot and co-pilot in any of the jobs offered in the labor market.

The student will obtain the SEP helicopter rating Cabri G2 and the MET, AS355 os Bell 429 helicopter rating with IR rating and PBN attributions.

To fly any other type of helicopter, it will be necessary to obtain a specific type rating.

With this license it is possible to fly in all the countries of the European Union, as long as there is an annotation of linguistic competence in the license of at least operational level, in English. Also with this license you can obtain, by taking the corresponding courses, the Instrument Flight, Flight Instructor, etc. qualification. Consult our section of Courses & Ratings (H).

It will also serve as the first phase to access the Airline Transport Pilot License, by passing the different modular courses offered by World Aviation Flight Academy.

ATPL(H)/IR training program

THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL TRAINING

Due to the close relationship that must exist between theoretical instruction and flight instruction, theoretical instruction is divided into phases for correlation with the different stages of flight instruction.

The flight phase should not be started without the certainty that the student has acquired the necessary knowledge for the development of a safe flight, taking into account that he/she has to fly alone before finishing the basic phase.

Phase 1 flight will not be started without having completed Phase 1 theoretical training (240 hours) and the single-engine helicopter type rating theoretical course (5 hours).

Phase 2 flight training will not be completed without the completion of Phase 2 theoretical training (310 hours).

You will not start the Phase 3 flight without having completed the Phase 3 theoretical briefing (200 hours) and the multi-engine helicopter type rating theoretical course (32 hours).

Phase 4 flight training will not be completed without the completion of Phase 4 theoretical training (25 hours).

La finalización de cada una de las fases y el comienzo de la siguiente será acordada entre el/los instructores/es responsable/s de las teóricas y el CFI según el nivel de conocimientos alcanzado por el alumno de tal forma que asegure que la fase de vuelo se iniciará con los niveles de seguridad que se requieren para este tipo de curso

I am very happy with my course, I finished with a CPL(H) in hand and everything works perfectly at the school! The staff, including the mechanics and office staff, is very professional and helpful. I recommend it 100% if you have any doubts.

I had no experience in aviation. I liked it and I did it, you just have to put the will and effort into it. Today I work as a firefighting pilot. What I liked most about World Aviation is the team that makes it up.

CPL (H)
Helped me finish the CPL phase when my original ATO in Malaga let me down. Efficient, helpful, willing to listen and understand my circumstances in order to build a custom course. Very responsive, no delays. Shaved easily 3-6 months off my training timeline. I couldn’t ask for better, bravo!
