Firstly - Thanks for taking the time to read this
Secondly - No, this is not a 'Bleeding heart' looking for sponsorship, however...
As the lead in suggests I'm trying to get my info in order before taking the plunge and spending what is still I think alot of money.
I've been looking into this seriously for about 18 months, including a two hour trial flight and reading the books, (Air law / Comms and Principles of Helicopter flight.)
The problem is that just as I thought I knew what I was going to do, i.e PPL in the UK, hour building in the US and back to the UK for the CPL then apply to the North Sea Fleet, up comes this Australian pilot and tells me that I can go to Aus, do the CPL licence, (for a fraction of the cost,) come back here do, approx 5-8 hours and still get the CPL...
...Basically - H E L P !!
