I intend to make the most of being in the army by doing every course/qualification I can and I was wondering if learning to fly was something I can do while in the infantry

Normally you would need to join the Army Air Corp (AAC) to learn to fly helicopters. You can do it from the Infantry, but once you have the qualification, you would need to transfer to the AAC as the Infantry don't hold Helicopters.
