I never really had to live in the van luckily.....all seems to be going well for the Helicentre girls and boys lots of people seem to have benefitted from the company ethos of producing a 'working Pilot' and they seemed to have weathered the downturn better than most flight schools, they continue to attract new students at a time when it must be incrediably difficult to secure finance and get that flying career going which was traditionally where the Helicentre fuglies came from. Good Luck guys.
