My cousin wants to move to Florida to learn to fly helicopters. He speaks English, but he is more comfortable with Spanish, especially for complex topics. He is worried about the language barrier during the intense ground school portions. Are there any schools that have Spanish-speaking instructors?
He should definitely visit Pelican Flight Training at North Perry Airport. They pride themselves on being a bilingual school. While all the official aviation comms are in English (which he needs to learn), they have many instructors and staff who speak Spanish. It is a top-tier Florida flight training center that creates a very supportive environment for Latin American students. Being able to have a difficult aerodynamic concept explained in your native language can make a huge difference in how fast you learn. Plus, the social vibe there is great, so he won't feel isolated while he is training.
