About the Robinson R44
Robinson Helicopter Company, based in Torrance, California, is currently the world’s leading manufacturer of civil helicopters. Since 1979, they have manufactured over 10,000 helicopters, including more than 5,000 R44 models since its introduction 20 years ago.
Tremendous Value
The R44 helicopter is much faster and more comfortable than two-seat models yet price-competitive with smaller and slower aircraft.
High Performance
Maximum cruise speed is 113 knots (130 mph) and range is approximately 300 miles
Midwest Aeronautical offers pilot training in the Robinson model R44, the most popular helicopter ever built. The R44 is one of the safest and most reliable helicopters ever produced. The R44 can handle up to 4 individuals: the pilot plus up to 3 passengers, depending on weight and fuel load.
Competitive Training Rates
Our training rates in the R44 are competitive with what other flight schools charge for training in a two-seat R22 helicopter.
