Help - student looking to move to NZ for CPL(H).

[Andynewz]

Hi, can anyone provide any help or advice for me? I intend to move from the UK to New Zealand later this year in the hope of obtaining my CPL(H). I have contacted several Helicopter Training schools, situated both in the North and South Islands, however I would appreciate some unbiased feedback from anyone who has first hand experience with a school in NZ.

I will be based in Wellington, therefore I understand the closest base to me would be Palmerston North with HeliPro or a bit further with HeliFlight.

I am very new and in fact extremely inexperienced, having only taken my first lesson this morning with Northumbria Helicopters here in Newcastle. I am however comitted intend both the move and course both to go ahead.

If anyone could help with the above and provide any further information I would be very grateful.

Thanks

Andy.
