Question good school for R44 CFII training in Florida

Hi all,
I am looking for a good school to get my CFII in a R44?
Does anyone has done some training in a school in FL and can give some input or even output? I was looking so far at ocean helicopters or cloud 9 eventually some rotorhead was there or is still there.
Or maybe a great school in CA...

thank you!!!

Hey six,

I just completed my CFII at Aquila Aviation in Starke, FL. Its located in between Gainesville and Jacksonville. They have an R44 instrument trainer with a Garmin 430 in it and only 390hr on the hobbs. They charge $450/hr including fuel and instructor. If you want to PM me, I'll try to answer any questions as honest as possible, but my opinions will be biased because they hired me as an instructor. Their website is: www.866flyrite.com

Snoop Why R44?

6FeedHi

May I ask why you want to do your CFII in an R44 as opposed to any other piston (or even turbine) helicopter?

CFII in a 44

I presume he wants to get his R44 PIC time and sign off at the same time.
Kill two birds with one stone - makes sense to me, also might be too heavy to stay in Fwd CG for an IFR R22.
We do a lot of IR / CFII training in our 44's at our school.
