Directions

 
Instrument Pilot

While getting your Instrument rating you will become a better pilot.  You will learn to precisely control the helicopter by reference to the Instruments, a skill that will carry over to your VFR flights too.  You will gain a much better understanding of the ATC system for both IFR and VFR services.

All of your instrument time will count toward your commercial pilot  requirements, which doubles the bang for your training buck. You will find, too, that as you complete your commercial training and seek employment as a helicopter pilot, in many fields the instrument rating is a requirement.
