I was wondering...
I know I should be posting this in the Wannabe forum, but I figure you guys'd know.
In the U.S., what are prereqs to start learning to be a heli pilot? My friend is training in a Cessna, but I'd prefer to fly helis. I have thousands of simulator hours, courtesy of Microsoft Flight Sim, lol.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thnx

Lots, and Lots of $$$$. Checkout <a href="http://www.faa.gov" target="_blank">www.faa.gov</a> . .The section you would be interested in is PART 61 Licensing and Certification. It gives a breakdown of hours (minimum needed), knowledge areas, age, and other qualifying factor requirements.
