Thanks for the info so far.
I am in the UK, East Midlands (Northamptonshire). I have spoken with Sterling in Norwich already and Ray at Gloustershire. I have also spoken with a Cabair at Rochester but they have just lost their Chief Pilot and he was the one 300 rated.
I have been qouted prices up to around the £290 per hour mark plus VAT madness. I was paying $400 per hour in New Zealand approx £135 per hour.
Even selling my car hasnt helped. Anyone fancy splitting the proceeds of a Bank Robbery????
