Whirlygig,
Thanks for the advice. To be fair I am relatively au-fait with the training regs on both sides of the pond however I do appreciate you looking out for a fellow pruner. I merely need 25hrs of compressed hands on refreshment - ideally in a 44 or a 206.
I recall an outfit in Virginia who did just that but for the life of me cannot find them on-line. My web-search skills are abysmal.
