Kids these days are always asking which helicopter they should train in. When I learned (twenty years ago) I knew absolutely nothing about helicopters and thus this question never once popped into my head.
There were two schools in my area. I went to one and got a bad vibe from the chief pilot, so I went and checked out the other one, didn't get a bad vibe, went on a demo flight, absolutely loved it, and a week later I began training.
They could have been flying the J100 Flipiddy-Flop for all I cared.
