From Shobdon to the skies: Tiger Helicopters goes digital with FlightLogger

FlightLogger is proud to welcome Tiger Helicopters Ltd. as its latest partner in modernizing helicopter pilot training. Based at Shobdon Airfield in the UK, Tiger Helicopters brings decades of experience to the aviation industry, with a legacy of developing rotary-wing pilots for both civilian and police operations worldwide.

Established in 1992, Tiger Helicopters has trained thousands of pilots across government, and commercial sectors, including major international contracts for police forces worldwide. Today, the academy delivers both civilian flight training and bespoke police pre-type rating programs, preparing pilots through a 100-hour foundational syllabus that includes mountain flying, load operations, and advanced airmanship.

Tiger Helicopters operates a diverse fleet of Robinson R22, R44, R66, Bell 206 JetRanger, and Bell 505 aircraft, serving both local students and large-scale international training programs. The academy also collaborates with Robinson Helicopter Company on initiatives to train new pilots and is exploring future partnerships with UK and Global bases to deliver abinitio, pre-type rating police training.

“Our training operation spans everything from private and commercial licenses to complex police and other pilot development programs,” said Fred Perry, Director at Tiger Helicopters. “By implementing FlightLogger, we’re unifying our operations under one modern, digital system, bringing efficiency, structure, and compliance to every aspect of training.”

With FlightLogger’s digital platform, Tiger Helicopters will now be able to:

• Digitize and centralize student progress, flight records, and resource management
• Streamline scheduling across multiple aircraft and instructor teams
• Ensure CAA compliance, documentation quality, and audit readiness
• Replace spreadsheets and manual workflows with a unified, scalable system suited for international training projects

"Tiger Helicopters represents the very best of practical aviation training-combining tradition with innovation,” said Mads Larsen, CEO of FlightLogger. “Their expansion into international and police training programs highlights the need for scalable digital infrastructure, and we’re proud that FlightLogger will serve as that foundation."

With this partnership, Tiger Helicopters will transition its civilian DTO and advanced ATO operations onto FlightLogger in early 2026, ensuring streamlined compliance and a professional digital footprint aligned with global aviation standards.
