Are there minimum or maximum age requirements for obtaining a pilots license?
You can begin training at any age when you are tall enough reach the flight controls. There is no upper age limit. You must be 16 years old or older to fly the helicopter solo (by yourself), 17 to get a Private Pilot’s license and 18 years old to get a Commercial Pilot’s (and Flight Instructor’s license. At Wasatch Helicopter, we have trained pilots (male and female) from 13 years old into their 70’s.
