Wanted:UK type rating on Bell 407+ MD500

[TimTooWindy]

Advice appreciated on where / who can give me a type rating in the UK on both Bell 407 and MD500 during June?. I already have over 250hrs on both types and current too on an ICAO licence. (Valid JAR licence with expired 350/206 too.)

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Then you don't need to do a full TR course, you'd only do checkrides since you have 100+ hours on the types.

I know a chap in the South West who's an awesome independent instructor, owns a 500 you can type rate on. Ping a message if you're interested

Thank you for the replies and PM's. I will be in touch soon.....

Google is a great tool, but I always like to get industry information and this sight is always helpful. I was surprised after checking the CAA web page to find there were only 2- 407's on the UK register. Is that correct?. I thought there would be many more Bell enthusiasts if not private operators etc.

Some more 407 info appreciated.......feel free to PM.

Regards.
