Helicopter Pilot: Helicopter Pilots may be employed by companies to fly executives or components around the country. Other pilots may operate charter services. Offshore flying tends to be re-supplying and ferrying employees between home base and oil or gas rigs.

On reporting for flight duty they read and check all the relevant information on expected weather conditions, airspace restrictions, etc. They calculate fuel requirements and maximum load. On board they check instruments and request clearance from air traffic control before take-off.They perform all necessary navigation and communication with air traffic control. On landing, they shut down the engines and complete all necessary post-flight paperwork. Some helicopters are flown by single pilots - larger ones by two (a captain and co-pilot), working together on the flight deck.
