Heliflight
I agree with going to somewhere small, however make sure they will also help you out with the theory as many one or two ship operators leave you on your own or dont have the infrastructure.
Heliflight NZ hmmm.
Very much a professional training and general commercial operator a few years ago and still are.
However since they went heavily into student loans, attitudes students and machines have suffered.
The Wairarapa base is rumored to be closing down now so the "we have two bases" harp will soon cease.
It seems McKays huge student loan springboard to slay the Auckland corporate market has lost traction and things are getting more realistic.
Heliflight students? Unless you become an instructor things can be difficult as the reputation has declined a little.
Hopefully the people there will settle down after the student loan
experience and they will return to the Wairarapa days.
