Bell and Universal Helicopters Expand Bell 505 Training

Both Ab Initio And Rotary Wing Add-On Training Available

Universal Helicopters (UHI) has embarked on a new venture with Bell to deliver Bell 505 training to pilots across the U.S. and from around the world. New pilots can receive ab initio and rotary wing add-on training in the new Jet Ranger X at various UHI locations, including their Scottsdale and Prescott Arizona locations.

UHI can also provide training at a location on demand.

With certified instructors who have been approved by the Bell Training Academy, utilizing Bells’ proprietary coursework, UHI claims to be the only domestic Bell-Certified Training Facility (CTF) that is equipped to offer customers the expertise needed to master the Bell 206 and gain their private pilot license and beyond using the Bell 505. UHI currently educates pilots on the 206B airframe, providing Initial and Refresher Flight courses in accordance with Bells’ curriculum. With the addition of the Bell 505 classes, beginner pilots now can train on the next-generation Jet Ranger while obtaining their credentials as a private pilot, commercial pilot or both.

Nearly 300 customers currently operate the Bell 505 for a broad range of missions -- from adventurous outdoor exploration to beginner pilot training. Bell reports that it, "is thrilled to work with UHI to expand training opportunities across the U.S. and around the globe to instill a passion for Bell aircraft in future and experienced pilots."
