#108 Brand New | PRIVATE PILOT | HOGS Member Check Ride Passed

Hello, Kenny, this is Jaco du Plessis. I currently reside in Houston, Texas and originally I am from South Africa. I would really like to express my gratitude towards Helicopter Online Ground School whom I joined 6 months ago and I obtained my ppl last week. And thank you very much for your tutorials and also the valuable videos that you share with us as students. I'm really looking forward in continuing my studying, obtaining my CPL mixed.

Thank you. Congratulations, Jaco. Man, that is so cool. I get up on a day like today and it's cloudy and cool and misty, man. How many of you struggle on a day like this? Yesterday it was beautiful and sunny, man. But this member video helped get me going. Day 108 Coffee with Kenny. Thanks for tuning in every single day. Just want to take a moment to congratulate him again for sending me that video. I absolutely love it. I've had three videos just in the last week or so. I've already showed one this week over the weekend and I got one more to share with you. I wanted to do his today. Helping my attitude. You know, it's funny. My daughter loves days like this and I hate them. I like sunny and warm. My daughter loves cool and rainy. How can that be? We're so much alike in a lot of ways, but we are not alike on that one. Let me know what you think of on that subject. So I am Kenny Keller, creator, Helicopter Line Ground School. Seven years online Proofs in the pudding. And we love, absolutely love the pictures that people sent in, the videos that people send in. It's just amazing, you know, and it's proof that Helicopter Land Ground School is a community. You know, it's, it's. I don't know, it's. It's way bigger than I ever dreamed possible and it's turned into like a community. It really is. And HOGS members stick together, help each other out. We help HOGS members, they help us. I mean, it's a cool thing all the way around. And I just wanted to take a moment today to congratulate him again. All the way from South Africa now to Texas, working on his private. Now we're finished. To private. Sending me an awesome video now moving on to commercial. That's what Helicopter Land Ground School is built for. I just had a member ask or not a member. Somebody asked an email this morning. Hey, I'm applying for a crew chief job in his fire department. So he's not looking really to get the private pilot license, but he's wanting to know if the ground school can Help him learn the knowledge so he's more knowledgeable about the helicopter. And I'm like, I'm going to send him this video and say, heck yes. I'm finding this more frequently where people are in that environment where they're going to be working in and around a helicopter and they're not necessarily looking to get their license, but they want to learn more about helicopters. So they're more knowledgeable when they go to apply for the job position that they're applying for. And I think that's pretty darn smart. I think that's a wise decision. You know, when you're going for your dream, you're going for a position in, around and a hell in and around a helicopter. Heck, why not learn as much as you can about helicopters and helicopter safety and, and how a helicopter operates and what a pilot kind of goes through. Because a private pilot license is like a college, a small college course. It's a lot of study and there's a lot of things to know and a pilot goes through a lot in order to get rating. And I think it's cool that people want to learn more. Especially when I think back to the EMS environment where, you know, you're a pilot, you're working with a medical crew and around a whole bunch of medical people that really don't know anything about helicopters. So I think it's cool and not always there are some people that, you know, are in that field that maybe crossed over and did a private license or more. We have a lot of medics and nurses that got inspired after flying on the helicopter and then pursued their ratings. And I know one of our original ground school members from way back. One of my very first testimonials from 2012, a gentleman who was a medic got interested in helicopters and he was a medic on a helicopter. And now seven years later, he is flying. Last I knew he wasn't flying ems, but he was out doing AG spraying, I think flying a turbine aircraft. So here's a gentleman who reached out to me in the very beginning, sent me a testimonial in 2012 when he got his private and I actually met with him and had a pizza and beer in California on one of my trips out to California. That was awesome. So, man, I'm going to wrap this up and get going because I got another big day ahead of me. So many things I got to get done today. But I thought this is a great video today. Wanted to motivate people just a little bit, man. Go for your dreams and if you helicopter online, ground school is awesome. I'm going to put to a link down below where you can get either one of our number one Amazon best selling books, helicopter checkride or top ten checkride tips. Heather will ship those to you for just shipping and handling. I'm going to put a link down there for helicopter land ground school. You can take ground helicopter land ground school for a 24 hour test flight. And I say this all the time, but you know that there's. We got a few competitors out there, but nobody gives you a full 24 hour test flight. They give you a little sample here, a little sample there. You can see our whole site and that includes everything in the private. Whether you're wanting to check out the private or the commercial or the instrument of the CFI. You can see everything that's in there for 24 hours and then decide to keep the training or not. We part as friends. You can come back at any time. Do know that private is just private. Commercial membership includes the private certified flight instructor includes commercial, includes private instrument is standalone. There's monthly options on all of those. That monthly option comes with a 24 hour test flight, no risk to you. And then on top of that we have a 30 day money back guarantee. Recently one of our viewers said, or one of our members said it's the best damn deal in the industry. And it is. Because you got the free test flight, then you got a 30 day money back guarantee. How fair is that? You know, proof is in the pudding. And what this has turned into in seven years, nothing short of amazing. I get up every day thinking I'm a lucky son of a bitch. I am. With all the struggles over the years and the headache and heartache. Keep your nose to the grindstone and you'll get there. And you know what? Dreams change over time. Whatever your dream may start out as, it may very well change. And you just never know where you're going to end up. Absolutely amazing. So helicopter land, ground school link, be down in the description box below. Oh yeah, and hey, and then there's the professional pilot membership. That's where you get it all. And it's unlimited. So you got the monthly option, you got a yearly option that's going to go away sometime in the near future. That also includes the 24 hour test flight. Then on our big package, the professional pilot, you get everything private, commercial, CFI and instrument that doesn't expire, that's unlimited. You keep it for as long as you need it. That's a one time fee. I'm going to throw out a code today. KK 25 off. That saves you 25% off that big package. That's several hundred bucks. That's a great. Or almost several hundred bucks. That is. That's a great deal. And that doesn't have the test flight to it just because the system doesn't allow us to set it up that way on a unlimited. We can only do it on the subscriptions but it also comes with 30 day money back guarantee and that is 100% no hassle money back. We don't argue guarantee as long as you notify us within 30 days. I've never argued. We don't argue again. The proof is in the pudding. We believe in our training. The burden. I can't talk. The burden on us is to provide you the value.
