LDD,
Not a problem with the ride, I'm sure you will enjoy it. More hands on then what you are used to. Please let me know when your in my neck of the woods. The going rate for the bell 47 is $254 per hr dual, $224 solo hire, I think we are very competative.
Jobs in Europe are very few and far between, I think it's not what you know but who, if you see what I mean...
There are far more oppotunities in the US, larger market. The company I work for has a web site if you want to have a look it's
www.dutchcountryhelo.com.
Anyway get your head in those books, how's the sim bits going?
