Looks like self promotion and display of hours...... 
Watch out when you fly, that hobbs hours and actual time corresponds.... !!!!!!!!!!!! 'Cause you could be paying high time for little effort......
If you want to fly on S92, you better be good, would you like to fly 3 hours a month on that machine, and what about the pay ????
There are other companies in Johannesburg as well : Alpine, Henley Air, MCC aviation, Helibip in Pretoria/ Wonderboom, ........... careful on who you choose, AND ask about the instructors !!!!!
Good Luck
