Well done NTD on getting those words of wisdom out of Mr Nurmi, which will no doubt restore any doubters' confidence.
Coco - great investigative job! However despite this being one thick skinned bird I think it's already dead, so it's pointless shooting at it any more on the charity issue.
Maybe now though there is another bit of public service PRRuNe could help with. Mr Nurmi apparently runs his USA Academy helo flight training school. Does not Johan's response to NTD indicate (a) a worrying reliance on Him for a successful outcome of anything, (b) a less than systematic, logical mind, and (c) a teeny worry that advance fees might not result in flight time in a servicable aircraft?
Anyone out there currently training/trained recently with USA Academy to vouch for its integrity?
