You can legally fly ANY type of helicopter, including turbine (jet) engine-powered helicopters or multi-engine helicopters up to a gross weight of 12,500 lbs, provided you have completed the required ground and air training for each new type of helicopter. The flight controls work the same in EVERY type and size of helicopter. Often insurance companies will require a certain number of hours of experience before you can act as solo Pilot-in-Command of certain types of aircraft.
