alltorque :
I learnt at Bankstown Helicopters. I walked in there on the off chance, looking at prices. I felt so comfortable that I spend AU$12000 there almost at the drop of a hat.
I didn't do groundschool, so can't vouch for that, but the flying side was fine as far as I could tell, except for an almost guaranteed propensity for the flying programme to slip during the day, but then, where does it not ?
