Rocky Mountain Rotorcraft Flight Training - Accepting Students from Colorado Only
helicopter flight training colorado Thanks for your interest in Rocky Mountain Rotorcraft. We are a small school based just north of Denver, Colorado at Erie Airport (KEIK). We fly the turbo charged Enstrom 280FX, Schweizer 300c, and the turbine powered Enstrom 480B. A majority of our training is off-airport, mountain-based flying surrounded by the highest peaks in the lower 48. In addition to our location north of Denver and a 10-minute flight from the Rockies, we also operate a mountain campus near Telluride, in South West Colorado.

Our Locations

Erie airport is a sleepy, uncontrolled field that provides an excellent home base with uncrowded skies while being minutes from the class Bravo airspace of Denver International airport, and class Delta airspace of Rocky Mountain Metro. We don't have a tower telling us where and how to fly but have excellent opportunities to practice radio skills and flight procedures at these nearby airports. Our mountain campus near Telluride offers high altitude flying between 8 and 12,500 MSL on private land that covers over 10,000 acres of spectacular alpine terrain.


Our Programs
We offer flight training from the initial private though certified flight instructor (CFI) and all ratings in between. We also provide mountain specific courses for pilots with previous flight experience and Enstrom only courses for pilots interested in these wonderful helicopters. In addition we are partnered with a respected fixed wing flight school at our Erie location making it exceptionally convenient for pilots looking to obtain multiple ratings or use an airplane to build hours.

In addition to top-notch flight training we believe quality ground training is just as important. We have worked hard to create a customized syllabus and ground curriculum that goes well beyond the FAA requirements - we teach to a level we believe is necessary to make expert pilots in our demanding mountain environment.

We look for the right fit between your goals as a pilot and our flight training programs. If we believe your requirements will be better served at a different school, we'll certainly tell you this. We are not a pilot factory and take a limited number of students each year to ensure the best possible training environment, which means access to helicopters, flexibility in scheduling, and a truly customized program based on your goals.

Once again thank you for your interest. Please use the form on this page to request further information.
