Has anyone out there converted their Australian CPL (H) to a FAA or Canadian CPL (H).

How did you do it, what is the fastest and cheapest way.

Am considering long term options.

Thanks

Im not an Aussie (thank goodness :E ), Im a Kiwi. But when I did my conversion in Canada, I met a number of Aussies converting at Chinook Helicopters. I did mine at BC helicopters. Both schools seem pretty good.
Chinook has Bell 47's, and BC S300CBi's. So depends on which machine you would be most comfortable in.

PM me if you have any specific questions.
