BLUE SKY AVIATION
HELICOPTER TRAINING ACADEMY
"The way a flight school should be"
A focus on Career Preparation
Our philosophy is that we are in the business of career preparation. We are not just a flight training school, because to make a career in aviation requires more than the ability to pilot an aircraft. Our role is to develop our customer?s technical, emotional and intellectual skills. Ultimately, our mission is to influence the attitudes that contribute to our customer?s safety, work ethic, professionalism and confidence.
We want our students to be fully prepared to enter the industry as professional flight instructors. We believe that the academy atmosphere provides the most effective way to teach students what employers really expect.
Most ?self-paced? programs are just not realistic in preparing students to be employable. No employer allows you to come work when you feel like. There aren?t any ?self-paced? job opportunities in the helicopter business. All employers expect a certain level of commitment from their employees. Instead of designing the easiest program in the industry, we are committed to making our graduates employable.
We must also be fair to our extended customers, the operators that hire our graduates. Operators depend on us to supply them with safe, reliable and motivated employees. We believe that our training program should never graduate a student that would fall short of our customer?s expectations or compromise the reputation of the school.
We also believe in treating others as we would want to be treated. We want to assure our students that they can trust us to do what we say. We put everything in writing in the form of a contract to insure that there aren?t misunderstandings later on. We are willing to not only do what we say, but put it in writing so we all understand what to expect from each other.
Finally, we believe that our students are not only customers, but are actually our business partners. Our students rely on us to prepare them to become professional pilots. We depend on our students performance in the industry to build the reputation of the school. The better job we do preparing our students, the better our graduates perform in the industry. The higher our graduates climb the career ladder, a little piece of us goes with them. When our students achieve their goals, we also share in that success.
