At Higher Ground Helicopters, we’re more than a flight school—we’re a launchpad for your aviation career.

We proudly offer both Part 61 and Part 141 training programs, giving students the flexibility to choose the path that fits their goals. Our Part 141 program, offered in partnership with Sinclair Community College, allows you to earn a college degree while completing flight training. For parents, that means their student is not only becoming a pilot but also graduating with a solid academic foundation. For veterans, it means the ability to use VA education benefits without extra out-of-pocket costs—so long as you stay on track.

Why Train with Us?

• A Proven Fleet – With six helicopters on-site, all manufactured in the USA (Torrance, California), you’ll have the access you need to build skills and hours.

• Veteran-Owned & Operated – Nearly 80% of our staff are veterans or graduates of our own program, bringing unmatched experience and mentorship.

• Career Advancement – Combining flight training with a college degree gives you a powerful edge in the aviation industry, offering more stability and long-term opportunities.

Whether your goal is to fly for fun, train as a professional pilot, or instruct the next generation, Higher Ground Helicopters gives you the tools, the training, and the team to help you succeed.
