Meet Michael Bisek
Founder, Chief Flight Instructor & FAA Authorized Flight Instructor.
22,000+ Flight Hours
A Pilot's Pilot — and a Teacher's Teacher
Michael Bisek has been flying helicopters professionally since the early 1980s and teaching them since 1985. He founded Helicopter Experts in 1994 and has personally signed off thousands of pilot certificates as a Part 141 Chief Instructor and FAA Authorized Flight Instructor.
His students include airline pilots, military aviators, EMS crews, oil-and-gas pilots, ag operators, and weekend hobbyists. Michael's training philosophy is simple: fly the aircraft, manage the cockpit, respect the weather, and never stop learning.
Outside the cockpit he's a court-qualified aviation expert witness, an Authorized Robinson Dealer, and a long-time advocate for safety culture in general-aviation helicopter operations.
