Airplane and Helicopter Transfers, and Rentals by the Hour
Nobody has Cessna GA or PPL Flight Service in Greater Tokyo because of US Army Regulations
To join our flying club and be able to fly a helicopter in Japan (provided you are a pilot and qualified,) in addition to all of the usual you will need the following:
It takes about 2 weeks to get an Aviation Medical Certificate. And after that, it also takes 2 weeks to get an Aviation Practice Permission. That’s why it would be difficult to operate a helicopter etc during only a month’s stay in Japan.
If you are ok is okay to take a health check for an Aviation Medical Certificate, JFA will ask on your behalf to a hospital how many days it would actually take at that hospital, and if it’s okay to take the medical check for a non-Japanese speaker. Or else we will recommend another.
Also, the pilot will need to get a Certificate from the consulate of their home country to prove his nationality, name, date of birth, and gender to get the permission after getting the avitation medical certificate.
