Hello,

     My name is Casey LeBrun.  I am the Manager and one of the Flight Instructors for Performance Helicopters, LLC.  I was born and raised in Sulphur, Louisiana.  My first job was for the government, (5 years in the United States Marine Corps).   

     I fell in love with helicopters on my first flight in 1982, at the age of ten years old, on a helicopter ride at the Cal-Cam fair grounds.  Due to life, I did not start out on my dream of flight until 2001 when I started taking airplane instruction.

     Through the process I have obtained the following ratings:

  • Airplane Private
  • Airplane taildragger endorsement
  • Helicopter Private
  • Helicopter Instrument
  • Helicopter Commercial
  • Helicopter Certified Flight Instructor (CFI)
  • Graduate of Vortex Helicopters Private, Instrument and Commercial Helicopter courses
  • Completion of the Robinson Safety course at the Robinson Factory
  • Endorsement to instruct in the R22 and R44

    Performance Helicopters, LLC was formed in April of 2008 and we are currently operating three Robinson R22's and one R44.  Let me know if we can be of service to you.

 

Please contact me with any questions you may have.
