R22--The Good----

For most of us without a deep pocket the R22 is a great machine to learn on---its not the easiest but as stated before if you know the limitations and have a good instructor its a great fun machine--From Experience there are schools who will dip your credit card --choose the instructor or the School rather than the machine--and that's been said here before--If you have any doubt about the R22/44 then talk to Mike H@ MFH--he is based at Conington (Peterborough)---he does not so much fly the 22 as wear it--A man with loads of experience--loads of patience--a great instructor--a character-----He completed my PPL(H) when I had just about given up and has taught me, and many others how to fly the machine----and not just to a test standard!!!
