Flight in Bell 205/212

Hello Rotorheads,

Myself and a friend have an ambition to fly a Bell 205/212/UH1 and was hoping someone could point us in the right direction of where this might be possible. Myself I am working on my PPL(H) and have around 75hrs on a few different aircrafts (Robinson R22/44/66, and Bell 209) and my friend is a fully qualified PPL/CPL/FI(H) and has over 1500 hrs on those and more aircraft.

We are based in the UK, but happy to travel more or less anywhere - looking for a flight school or somewhere that has the Bell 205/212/UH1 and happy to spend a couple of hours flying with us - so looking for the equivalent of an introductory flight/dual flight - of course happy to pay going rate!

If anyone has any pointers to places that has the aircrafts and that might do dual flights, that would be great appreciated. More than happy to share any experiences as well, and ideally would like to find somewhere to learn more about aircraft and spend time with pilots before flying as well.

Many thanks and wish you all a good weekend
Thomas
