The student is introduced to basic piloting: straight and level flight, climbing, descending, basic autorotation and also hovering. After learning basic piloting, the student practices take-offs and landings. After mastering the circuit flights and emergency procedures, the student is tested for the first solo flight. Once the student has completed the solo flights, he/she moves on to more advanced piloting. The last phase of training is navigation flights, where the student also completes solo flights. On successful completion of all the training, the student will have an examination with a Civil Aviation Authority examiner.
