There were a couple of R22 available for hire/training at Urbe, Rome in May this year.
I can only recomend a company called 'ELI FRIULIA Helicopter Service'. They were hoping to set up another training base in Rome (at Urbe). Presently based up North but worth a call +390481778901.
They will put you intouch with the other operators at Urbe Rome if they can't help.
