Chinook Helicopters began training operations in 1982 at the Abbotsford Airport and quickly became one of Canada’s busiest and best known helicopter training schools. Chinook’s training policy has always been to rise above the existing standard for initial licence training and to commit the commercial licence program to the development of student skill levels to match those being used in the industry today.
Chinook Helicopters Ltd. is Canada’s premier helicopter training facility. The company provides a full spectrum of basic and specialized advanced flight and ground training to the global community since 1982. The company is privately owned and operates from a large modern facility at the Abbotsford Airport in southwestern British Columbia, Canada.
Chinook now dominates Canadian helicopter training with a 25% market share of all the helicopter training completed in Canada. Last year 30% of students attending courses and programs at Chinook come from countries other than Canada. A large percentage of helicopter companies across the globe probably have someone in their employ who has been through a Chinook helicopter training program.
As well as teaching people to fly, Chinook provides a full range of industry related advanced training and is well positioned to meet and exceed the upgrade and recurrent helicopter training needs for pilots at commercial helicopter flying operations around the world.
To maintain pace with changing industry trends and evolving technology, Chinook is continually developing innovative helicopter related training projects. Advanced computer programming, machine learning, robotics and UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) are sectors under development that will enhance and expand on the traditional forms of training we have offered over the years.
