Well sounds like you had a good time. I did the SFAR 73 thing for the R-22 some years ago to see what they were all about. Like anything they have there good and bad points. Now as for Bert, well he is just a legend. Oh and dam good pilot too. . .. .Now as for me I'm looking at converting my FAA Certificates to UK/JAA. My guess it will not be easy or cheap.
