World Class Flight Instruction

Safety Is Our #1 Priority
Celebrity Helicopters specializes in helping people become professional pilots. With a staff of experienced flight instructors whose primary concern is safety, we produce safety-conscious pilots. We do our part to ensure that a helicopter remains one of the safest forms of transportation available.

Years Of Experience
Our Chief Pilot, Robin Petgrave has over 11,000 hours and has trained hundreds of pilots who have successfully taken their flying career all over the world. Most students started their career with no flying experience at all and with the help of Celebrity Helicopters' Flight Training accomplished both their private and commerical license and became desireable pilots, ready to be recruited.

We Produce Smarter Pilots
"Many pilots can manipulate the controls of a helicopter and fly from point A to B, but not many can fly a helicopter in a movie. I train pilots to be completely familiar with emergency procedures and aerodynamics involved so they are able to make the right decisions to conduct any flight situation successfully." This attitude and technique of training the "Smarter, more Skilled Pilot" has made graduates highly in-demand and a valuable asset to any company.

We Can Help You Get Financed
We have just contracted with Orange Coast College to be the flight training division of the college. We can finance your entire training program, even living expenses. Our professional pilot program will get you financed, trained, and employed, all before you have to make any payments. Give us a call (877) 999-2099

We Take Pilots To Another Level

Let Us Take You Higher
We deal with Production work, Celebrity transportation, Aerial Photography, Law Enforcement, and many other aspects of helicopter utilization that our students have the opportunity to experience. "We offer a Ride-along package to our students and I feel that if they are exposed to the things a helicopter can do and how it is used in the Real World before they complete there training, they will have a big advantage on other pilots. This is why our graduates have such an easy time getting a job and have such a long safe career as a helicopter pilot."
