Chopperline International flight school
Hi, all
I am considering to undertake my PPLA training in oz. I have recently heard of Chopperline. They offer both Helicopter and fixed wing training. I would like to know:
1. What is the training quality in PPLA and ground school?
2. How about the professionalism of instructors?
3. How about CPLA training there also?
4. the living expense in oz.
I appreciate any information you can shared with me.
Thanks

Check the Chopperline site out.
As far as all the answers above ,you cant go wrong.One of the best schools in a great place.
Cost of living not too bad.
They put you in a share house,the price im not sure of,but around $50 a week .Can cook at home ,or some pubs have a 2 for the price of 1 meals ,so you buy one night and a mate buys the next.
Glass of beer around $2.50 ,carton of beer (24) around $30 ,packet of 30 smokes around $10 ,average pub meal around $12 ,pizza $8 ,macdonalds $6.
If you dont drink and smoke and chase the local talent you could probably get away with $200 a week living on a shoestring budget,but allow at least $300 to be safe
My son was there 5 years ago and didnt spend much-----thank god.

CPL-H ,but included a PPL-A.
Thats the cheap way to do it but then you dont have enough helicopter hours to get a job.
Hes up and away now but its only seasonal work.
