Question
Hi I'm still in high school, and I want to become a law enforcement helicopter pilot and was wondering how i do that?

Answer
the process is almost identically same as of getting helicopter pilot license normally. You will have to be enrolled in regular flight school and get your Private, Instrument, and Commercial tickets. Also on top of that you will have to an law enforcement officer for some peoriod of time ( I think about 5 years at least), before you can be nominated for an helicopter flight unit.
This is not exact way for each state, but generally low enforcement pilots have to be officers first before they can start enforcement flying.
