Product Description
When this was announced 8 years ago, it was Australia’s first dedicated self-study pack specifically designed with the PPL helicopter student in mind.
The heart of the package is the textbook by Helitheory Chief Instructor Alex Grivas. Titled ‘A Private Pilot’s Guide To Helicopters‘, the book was the culmination of over 10 years spent successfully teaching PPL-H courses across Australia.
The text has now become an industry standard, and is being used by the majority of flight schools in Australia to run their PPL theory courses. This self-study pack has guided hundreds of students through the PPL, with the study guide and curated selection of resources, this pack contains all you need to sit the CASA PPL(H) theory exam.

About the Kit and Author
Helitheory, we are an independent training organisation specialising in ground-schooling for helicopter pilots. Helitheory is a CASA-recognised theory provider, working with flight schools throughout Australia to help students achieve their training goals.
The helicopter is a complex and wonderful machine. These complexities make the helicopter versatile and rewarding to learn to fly, but they can also make the theory component of a licence challenging. Our aim is to make the theory part of your licence as easy and as painless as it possibly can be.
Alex Grivas is our chief instructor, he has held a commercial helicopter licence since 2006 (amongst a stack of other approvals and qualifications). He has over a decade’s experience working as a theory instructor in Australia and overseas. Alex authors our manuals and runs PPL(H), PMI, and AROC courses, gives private tuition and advice. If you have any questions on helicopter theory, about aspects of flying, or need any kind of helicopter, UAV or general dealing-with-CASA advice, Alex is here to help.
