All I can say is what a great experience, I learnt not just how to hold a stick and pretend to fly it, but actually controlled it (yes he had hands on all the time) but the hours classroom before was cool because you also understood how it actually worked (ask why French helicopters are different) Captain Hoff is a great instructor larger than life personality and hell yes if I didn’t get motions sickness I would do it again tomorrow

An absolutely fantastic experience! I would highly recommend Hoff Aviation – Captain Alex was great and really made the occasion. The helicopter ride was comfortable, enjoyable and informative

Professional Helicopter training to the highest standard. having had a trail lesson last year, six month later flying solo and my PPL rotary in sight. I am 61 so its never to late with the right instructor to achieve your life’s ambition. Alex at Hoff’s aviation, thank you

Following a life long passion for flying I came upon HOFF Aviation by chance having talked to a number of other training schools with their high pressure selling tactics. Alex HOFF spent time talking me through what was required and his approach, which I found very professional and flexible to meet my needs and busy schedule. His experience, knowledge, skill and patience is second to none and my PPL is now within sight and I look forward to continuing my training with Alex in the future. You cannot go wrong with HOFF Aviation.

I converted my Australian CPL to a UK CPL with Captain Hoff after recommendations from other contacts in the industry. He was very professional, thorough and helpful which was backed up with a huge amount of experience across the UK helicopter scene. His knowledge was immense and I was able to pass the CPL test with ‘flying colours’. Thank you very much Alex, my time with you was extremely valuable and I will be forever grateful for your part in my career!

In 2017 I converted my ICAO CPL(H) to an EASA CPL(H).
Alex guided me through the entire process, from having to learn UK airspace, RT, and a Cabri G2 type rating, I found Alex to be professional and thorough. He worked with me to achieve a first time CPL Skills Test pass.
With this solid UK foundation, I am now working for a reputable UK based helicopter company.
I highly recommend Alex for all your helicopter training needs.
