Heliflight - Any Experiences/Comments?

Does anyone have any experience or comments regarding Heliflight, from a training perspective?

I am looking to start a ppl moving on to commercial thereafter. Having done a bit of homework these guys appear to be professional, and also reasonably local to me (which is quite important at this time). I am based in the south west.

Any comments would be gratefully recieved.

Cheers Dan

I did most of my hour building/pleasure flying with Heliflight at Wolverhampton, and my CPL course with Heliflight at Gloucester. They seem pretty good; I have no complaints. If you have any specific questions about them, feel free to send me a PM.

I've always found them very professional and will continue to use them. Their aircraft are well maintained and always spotless.

IMHO good place to start.

Thanks for the comments fellas.

I drove up on Saturday to take a look and ask a few questions, and subsequently started flying on Sunday.

I kinda liked the idea of training for ppl and cpl in the same place.

I'll let you know how I get on

Cheers Dan

John Lane is a good bloke and his operation at HalfPenny Green and Gloucester looks very professional not flown with them but they look very good.
