Hi all

new to pprune looking for information on doing my PPL(h) at Doncaster. I see that there is a company called helicopters.co.uk advertising training at the airport.

Anyone trained with these guys? or had any experience? or know where their office is located at Doncaster

thanks

alpha helicopters are based at doncaster now I believe. They use a H300.

Give Jeremy a call i'm sure he'll help sort you out.

have tried to find alpha helicopters. When i typed in alpha helicopters on google it sends you to helicopters.co.uk are they the same company?

It might be the same as they did have a base at Blackpool.

It is the same. Jeremy bought the helicopters.co.uk URL from Digby when he left Aero Maintenance & the Heliscott AOC link ended.

Don't think Jeremy has anything to do with helicopters.co.uk anymore.

If you are interested in training at Blackpool would suggest looking at Ventbrook Air
they are a new operator based in hangar 3. They use H269 and have access to R22 and R44. PM me if you want more details or ring 01253 369009

or maybe it is now Stepford Helicopters, although casual viewers can note the similarity to helicopters.co.uk content
