Are there any grants or scholarships or other “free” sources of money for Helicopter Pilot Training?
It is not easy to find money for flight training. But that is a good thing in some ways.

The good news is that there are few (if any) grants or scholarships for beginning helicopter pilots that we are aware of. What do we mean by that? We mean that the people who make the effort to earn or find a way to finance their own helicopter pilot training have an edge over those who don’t. If there WERE a lot of grants, scholarships, or easy loans, then there would be a HUGE NUMBER of people training to be helicopter pilots so the competition for jobs would be fierce. Since it takes a lot of personal sacrifice to do it, there are consequently fewer people with the drive, desire, and committment to become helicopter pilots. Work at it, find a way, and you’ll be successful. Unfortunately there aren’t many people or institutions out
