I was in Norway last month and was told CHC still needed plenty over there. I certainly would recommend going up to ABZ and speaking with the main man in person, although he can be hard to get hold of as he is extremely busy, but that's what a friend and I did and got in with less than 300 hours. Also, I wouldn't trust the applying with the website, rumour is that people dont seem to get a response from them. Best of luck.
