Apex Helicopters - About Us

Doug Dickey
Owner, ATP, CFI, CFII

Doug’s journey in aviation began in 2005 just a few short years after earning a BBA in Finance from Sam Houston State University. After pursuing a career in banking, Doug felt a calling to be up in the skies. Since then he has logged more than 3000 hrs and carries both a Rotorcraft and an Airplane Flight Instructor rating.

Doug founded Apex Helicopters with the customer in mind. He saw the need for a helicopter flight school in the Houston area that would put the students and their needs first. He wanted to create an atmosphere where students and pilots can gather to share their experiences about flying and continue to grow their knowledge.
