Support & assistance
For any questions about the process or training details, you can contact the following email address before registration:
theorie@hsa.ch
You will receive support, for example, if a pre-test on the e-Learning platform needs to be reset or if there are any other uncertainties.
Of course, you may also ask your flight instructor theoretical questions during practical training.

Important note about the e-Book
The e-Book is optionally available but not recommended. During learning, it is necessary to take notes and add additional documents to the binder. This is not possible with the e-Book, which is why HSA strongly advises using printed materials.

e-Learning – Helicopter-specific subjects (Bridge) PPL(H)
The bridge course is intended for holders of a fixed-wing license who wish to obtain a helicopter license. In this case, only the helicopter-specific subjects need to be completed.
(Note: An e-Learning CPL(H) is not offered by HSA.)

Theoretical exam BAZL / EASA

BAZL exams take place every month at various locations in Switzerland. Any number of subjects can be taken on an exam day. A maximum of 18 months is allowed between the first and last theoretical exam.

If you fail one or more subjects, each subject can be repeated up to three times. After failing a subject three times, the entire theoretical training must be repeated.

After passing the last exam, you have 24 months to complete the practical flight test (Skill Test), the practical radiotelephony certificate (VFR Voice), and the English language proficiency check (LPC).
