I am looking at helicopter training in either usa,canada,australia or uk, can anyone give me any info on schools in these areas.I understand about the different licenses and am prepared to work in which ever country I train in and as you can proberly understand money is a big issue.It will also take much longer in this country through the modular route compared to overseas.I understand this and if anyone can give me good reasons/info to train in this country then I would rather do that.I am just so confused and have started to go round in circles.Please Help

As you have already asked myself similar questions about this and been given some answers, I just wanted to say a big thanks for turning up at Red Aviation, Bournemouth, 23rd November as planned. We could have answered any of your questions and given our time free.
Professional Pilots are pretty good at spelling too!!
Don't dream about it, just go for it. You only live once!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeff....the avenue I chose has certainly enabled be to become a flying instructor and now well on my way to CPL.
What I mean is that I used some aviation consultants who specialise in the helicopter industry and helping people into it whether for just the pleasure of a PPL(H) or planning a career for CPL(H). Some people prefer to "paddle their own canoe" but from experience it certainly pays to have taken impartial advise on issues such the UK v's USA. There web site address with all their contact details is www.plh.co.uk (http://www.plh.co.uk) Good luck! Any probs , give me another shout.
