Part 135 Prep Course

Part 135 helicopter operators usually train and check their own pilots for 135 work. Pilots who are new to the 135 environment are unfamiliar with the elements involved with this type of work, and find themselves behind the power-curve when trying to promote themselves to the perspective employer.
