Helicopter school
 
Hi guys. I have been wanting to take the commercial pilot license for helicopter for quite some time now, that is if I can obtain a medical class 1 and some other factors fall into place.
I live in Denmark, but have been advised and would also like to take the license in the U.S. or Canada, but I'm not sure which of the two to choose.
I realize that there is probably not one universal answer for this question, but I would just like to be pointed in at least some direction by people who know about this stuff.
So my question is plain and simple, should I choose the U.S. or Canada for the commercial helicopter pilot license? And does anyone have good experience with particular schools in those countries?
My main concerns are the quality of the training and the possibilities of getting a job afterwards.

Thank you.

Regards,
Rasmus

There is very little work around for low-houred helicopter pilots.

Cheers

So I've heard. But it seems that people in the aviation industry say that there is almost less work for aeroplane pilots with low hours, than helicopter pilots.
Thanks for your reply though :)
