Kenny Keller (creator of Helicopter Online Ground School) answers a new member’s question about whether it’s beneficial to start the online ground school before beginning actual helicopter flight training. He shares two member anecdotes: Troy, who credits the course with helping him understand material before lessons and who praises a local school (Mountain Ridge Helicopters), and Johan, who arrived at his flight school with extensive ground knowledge, passed his written test quickly, and completed his private rating within about three weeks. Keller’s conclusion: yes — students can start the online course before flying and often perform better once flight training begins. He closes with links and contact information for the course.

Hello, I'm Kenny Keller, the creator of Helicopter Online Ground School, and I want to answer a question from one of our new members just joined today. But a couple days ago he asked, I'm looking at starting flight training. I was wondering if starting your online course now would be beneficial or would it be more beneficial once I actually get to the helicopter? So instead of me just trying to sell him on why it's so great and why he should go ahead and join, I'm going to give you a testimonial. We just got also as well from the same style of question a gentleman asked. He was curious about whether he wanted to start using the ground school before he started actually flying. His name is Troy and he gave me permission to use his information what he sent me publicly. He was totally cool with it and he sent me a message all excited. He said, hello, Kenny. I got to take control of a helicopter today for the first time. It was amazing. Your materials have helped me understand so much before it is even being taught. I do not try and tell them that I already know anything. I just let them teach me. The ability for me to learn at home is incredible and worth every penny to me. I hope everyone knows it is totally worth it. I just want to say thank you for the time that you've taken to create Helicopter Lane Ground School. You are making it so much easier for me to follow my dream. Also, I did finally find a school that I'm excited to work with in order to follow my dream. Mountain Ridge Helicopters. They have great people, great instructors, relaxed professional environment in Logan, Utah. So that's directly from one of our members who asked the question, should I start using your training before I actually start the flight training? I'm going to go back and say, for years I've taught that we like to do the ground school and the flying together. That's the way we've done it for years and that's normally the way that it works best. But if somebody wants to get the training before they start actually flying, they can and will do better once they start the flight training. We have a past video. I'll put a link nearby somewhere for that video. A young man named Johan that showed up at his flight school had all the ground knowledge, blew away his instructors when he showed up, took his written test within the first couple days. Three weeks later had his private and walked out the door with his rating. And his instructors were the first to email me and go, Kenny, what did you do to this guy? He walked in and he was ready to go. He knew everything he needed to know, did his written, he was easy to teach because he already had the knowledge he needed. That was another one of our success stories. So the answer to the question Can I use your training before I actually start the flight training? Yes, you can.
