I think it is only fair to come back to you all and report on our day yesterday. Sherburn is about 40 mins from LBA by car. When I say its in the middle of nowhere it really is. Met with Bob and his sister Angela who does the admin side of things. The aero club, the facilities, the air space, everything was excellent. Spoke to bob, what a gentleman. Showed us around, got the full tour, saw the Hiller! Had lunch, new cook there and it was lovely! Bob took us up for a bit of a joy ride in the afternoon. I was surprised at how much I knew compared with fixed wing. Left and got the flight back from LBA at 2000. We will definatly be going back in the new year to do the training there. Simply based on what I saw there over one day is if you are thinking heli training, then Id give Hields a serious thought. Thanks for everyones input.
