What a curious remark Up & Away.
I didn't train at HeliAir, never instructed there and can't speak from personal knowledge about how good or bad their PPL courses are.
However, because training questions come up frequently on the forum, I make a point of noting which schools or Instructors are most oftem recommended in particular areas.
All part of the Rotorheads service to help aspiring pilots.
I would have happily recommended the school where I did my original training but it closed years ago and wasn't in the areas CF specified.

[edit]
Ah! Now I remember. (I'm not as tired this morning as when I posted last night.)
You're the flying instructor who "advised" on a previous thread that Cambridge Helicopters was the "only" place to do an instructors rating.
Independent recommendations from satisfied customers are permitted on PPRuNe. People plugging themselves or their schools is not, partly because we don't allow free advertising but mainly (in this context) because we don't want people who ask for advice being misled into thinking they are being given independent advice when it's nothing of the sort.
