Hi Mike,
Also very close to Loughborough is East Midlands Heli's based at Costock.
And no, I don't work for them and never have, but they are a good well respected operation.
I also live in Costock, and if you wish to meet for an independent chat please pm me. I've been been in helicopters since 1985, don't profess to know everything, but have done a lot of varied jobs.
