- Summary
- COI synopsis: Professional pilots are specialists, whether they are to fly jet airliners or, as in this case, helicopters. First they must all pass their basic training as pilots, but then comes the need to master the special requirements of their chosen work. We show professional African pilots achieving confidence, control and mastery over one of the most difficult aircraft of all - the helicopter.
