PANO – Naval pilots started to practise flying EC120B helicopters on May 22nd from Vung Tau Airport, after they had received a training course organised by the Training Centre of the Vietnam Helicopter Corps (Corps 18).

Although the cloudy weather was not convenient for flight practice, naval pilots finished their tasks successfully and safely.

According to the organising panel, the pilots have grasped the flying theory and skills and they are able to conduct flights themselves to implement their assigned tasks.

Recently, the Vietnam People’s Navy has formed a helicopter unit to better satisfy the requirements of its tasks.
