Hello All,
Conundrum.....i already have a JAA fixed wing ATPL and im rated on an A320 but i am interested in gaining my PPL(H) and after asking around i have heard of a number of diffent paths to follow.
Initially i was just looking at doing a JAA course in the UK or abroad somewhere, but a colleague has suggested doing the FAA PPL(H) instead as it means i can fly anything up to 12,000lbs (after getting checked out of course) and that there are no limits on the minimum number of hours needed to stay current just a biannual check.
So i guess im just looking for some of u intelligent chaps to offer your views, especially if u have an FAA PPL(H) and fly in the UK.
Regards.
