And for those who have the possibility to have their own helicopter, you can pilot it. The private pilot cannot be paid, nor can he fly an air taxi, work in executive aviation or be registered as a helicopter pilot.
However, he can fly private aircraft to accumulate flight hours as a pilot in command, and in the future to advance his career by taking other courses in the field.
