Approval for R22 training in UK

Can anyone shed some light on exactly what is needed for approval by the CAA to allow a R22 to be used for training please?

I've had a look at the website, but as usual its just a minefield

He's the secenario.....

A friends buying an R22, previously been used for some trainnig. I would like to use it for cpl(h) course and FI course. And he would need to obtain a type rating on it.

Can anyone just clarify what bits need to be in place for the CAA etc before I contact them. i.e someone out there who's operating 22's for the same thing.

The school said something about a check or part**.... something or other that it needs to have. Can anyone expand on that please? i.e what it is and what might need to be done to get it.

It will only go to the school for the duration of my training then used for private use. (I shouldnt think that would make more difference anyway)

Also does it need anything on the ship itself that differs from one being used for private flights. (obviously a DI AH ect... someone also said Fred Cross I believe it was insists on a VOR) and I know if you dont have a night rating its included in you training so would need a night kit or use another one for 5 hours...

Many thanks in advance.
