International Pilot Information
This page is designed for non-U.S. pilots who will be
visiting the U.S. to fly. In order to fly in the U.S., you will need to contact
local pilots for information and protocol for each site that you will fly. Click
here for the schools, and chapters
of USHPA. These would be your best sources for information on flying sites.
Clicking here will get you a copy of a
membership application
to USHPA. A membership with USHPA will provide you with liability insurance and
will also enable you to receive ratings. If you are flying a regulated site, you
will need to be a USHPA member with whatever rating/skill level is required for
that particular site.
