I had a great session with Kelly! She is super knowledgeable and provided several resources for me to start my journey. I was so excited about the books she recommended that I ordered them the minute we finished our call!
I personally would recommend Kelly as a helicopter instructor, in fact I am signing up for more sessions and she is going to help guide me through my helicopter flight learning journey!

About
Hello, I'm Kelly O..
Hi, I’m Kelly! I’m an independent helicopter flight instructor with a diverse aviation background. Before becoming a pilot, I spent several years in the U.S. Air Force as an air traffic controller, separating and controlling B-1 and B-52 bombers, as well as other military and civilian traffic. My role as an approach radar controller gave me a solid foundation in procedures and safety, and I also served as the airspace coordinator for the Powder River Training Complex, one of the largest military training areas in the U.S.
After leaving the military, I spent two years pursuing a medical degree, but soon realized that radiology wasn’t for me. Instead, I followed my passion for aviation and have since earned my commercial and instrument ratings. I am now a Certified Flight Instructor with my instrument qualification.
I currently fly the Guimbal Cabri G2 and love the challenge of helicopter flight. My air traffic control background has given me an in-depth understanding of instrument flying and procedures, which I’m excited to share with students. Flying has brought a sense of freedom and fulfillment to my life, and I’m passionate about helping others experience that same confidence and sense of accomplishment.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you take the next step toward your helicopter goals!
