Online Helicopter Training

Flying a helicopter is extremely difficult and very costly to learn. Even the R/C helicopters take a lot of practice and pain. However online flight simulators offer broadly the same experience at very little cost and you will experience how to learn to fly one within a realistic cockpit, with realistic scenery, noise and a huge choice of airports and aircraft carriers to hone your skills upon.

Online simulators offer flight training as well as all sorts of downloads and add ons where you can test your skills and receive a lot of experience. Simulators don't just stop at helicopters though, they offer a huge array of aircraft, from the 1907 Wright Brothers plane, through to World War Two Gliders and combat craft, to MIG's and F-17's right through to the latest military jets and civilian aircraft such as the Boeing 747.

If you intend to purchase an R/C helicopter, you should look at buying a good flight simulator game first. They are far less expensive and you wont be in tears when you have a crash. You will learn on your PC how to control the rotors and takeoffs and landings. The controls are very realistic and are modifiable. As is the scenery, noise and even changeable weather conditions to keep you right on your toes.

Flight simulation games are completely downloadable, all you require is a good PC and away you go. The software in a good game is so good that you can fly directly above your own house - but you'll have to practice how to take off first. You can then land at 20,000 plus airports around the world and after you've mastered the helicopter then move onto the 100 plus planes available as well.

When people think of flight simulators they are generally thinking of the choose of planes available. In fact the best flight simulator games for 2011 have over 120 planes you can choose from, but, there is also quite a wide range of helicopters to choose from too. Helicopters are hard work to learn. So expect some considerable time before you can master all the necessary skills. One experienced helicopter pilot once told me that when you begin to learn it's like standing on a ball juggling oranges.

However good flight games have excellent tutorials to take you from the basics and provide skills that you could then take with you to a flight school to learn the real thing.
