RotorWay is a consultancy specialized in converting the PLH licence issued by ANAC into the FAA ATP(H), in line with United States regulatory requirements.
We know how much you have invested to get where you are. Our mission is to make every hour you have flown in Brazil count, so you lose neither time nor money earning your American licence.
To begin the conversion process, you must meet every FAA requirement listed below.
No active restrictions or suspensions
Aviation English proficiency at level 4 or above
Current first-class medical (CMA)
Passport and B2 (tourist) visa valid for entry into the U.S.
A structured process from day one to the checkride, with no surprises along the way.
We review your flight history and documentation and set the timeline for the entire conversion process together.
Study support for the FAA written test through a partner app.
Training focused on the Robinson R-44, the helicopter used in American flight training, covering systems and emergency procedures.
We cover everything you need to know on the theory side: navigation, American airspace, FAA regulations and IFR procedures.
A complete, realistic simulation of the practical exam so you arrive on test day with maximum confidence and technical readiness.
After the theory preparation, you head to the U.S. for practical training with our FAA-certified partner school.
The whole process, from the Written Test to the checkride, takes about 2 weeks on average.
