Hi Copterfan, I would personally not do my training at liverpool or even Blackpool, you spend 20 mins of every hour waiting for ryanair or easyjet.

Don't rule out the Enstrom either, its a good solid machine to fly, not as nippy as the 22 or 44 or as modern but has the benefit of loads of power like the 300 and has fuel injection so no carb heat to think about.

I decided to learn on an Enstrom because I am slightly larger than perhaps I should be, but have since put the 22 & 44 on my licence, the best of all is the 44 and if youve got enough money to think about buying the ec120 then learn on the 44 raven2 its a fantastic machine, in fact you probably wouldnt want a turbine after it.
