Yeah great bunch but sadly no longer there. Sad times really for private helicopter flying in Scotland. I think the cost of ownership what with recalls for blades/bladder tanks/ new head systems etc has put a great deal of people off. Going off topic I’ve always wondered why no one in Scotland started a group flying a helicopter. 6 guys all spreading the costs etc and if one was an engineer, what a bonus. There’s one operating very successfully down south for many years now. Anyone interested PM me, sorry for drift!!!!
