I plan to start a distance learning ATPL(H) course as soon as I complete my PPL(H). I'll mainly do so to improve my competence as I don't plan to fly helicopters commercially. I'll probably go for a CPL(H) though as I'm a ratings and certificates collector. What school would you recommend? I've been through Bristol gs for my ATPL(A) years ago and I certainly did not like their books, because their intention seemed not to explain things but rather to expose gross knowledge and recipes.

Not a rotary wing man myself, however, I've heard capt.gs is spot on in that department.

Absolutely, CAPT. Phil will see you right.

Thanks, Alex, but you guys are not so bad yourself

Either Phil (CAPT) or Alex (Bristol) will do you well. I have used both for helicopter distance learning and both are world class providers. The best 2 by far in my opinion, especially for helicopter study, for both materials and support. Good luck with whatever you decide.
