Helicopter copanies pay for schooling in exchange for contract.

[JonnyUSMC]

Are there any programs or companies that will pay for someone to go through helicopter school in exchange for a contract to work for them?

Good luck with that. Unless you are apart of the family that owns the business, more than likely no. Have never heard of any.

I wish!

Hell I know of some companies who are charging students to fly for them on cherry drying contracts just for the 'experience'.

 

I think you would be hard pressed to find anyone to promise a job after you have paid for their entire program in today's market.

Actually there is, believe it or not. Something I heard about recently. Let me see if I can find the link.

 

Ah. Here we go. Go HERE for info.

I believe ARAMCO pay's training from Pvt - Comm for it's employee's but you would have to be Saudi, and pass their extensive selection criteria to cash in on that. The school I work for will "usually" offer a deal. They'll pay for your CFII in exchange for a 1 year contract teaching for them, however... You would already have to be employed as a CFI and in good standing for them to do that, so...... in short..... No, I don't know any place like that.

I'm glad I was not the first to think of that. If only I were 20 years younger... or if the Government would acknowledge that us old people can make the same sacrifices as the young'uns, age discrimination, bah, humbug!! (I'll get off the soapbox now)

That's hilarious, I should have seen that one coming. I'm too darn gullible
