Question QLD as350 endorsement

Am Queensland based and am considering doing an as350 endorsement - am happy to travel just about anywhere to do it (Sunshine Coast, Airlie Beach, Cairns etc...)

Instead of jumping on the phone I thouhgt I would save a little leg work and make a few initial inquiries here at Rotorheads.

I am after rate/hr, location, availability etc etc.

Please feel free to PM me with details if you would prefer not to post info here. Thanks

Not particularly helpful...but anyway

flapnfeather....
I don't know what rates etc...just a few ideas who might be able to do them. John Caldwell is a bloke who used to work for Aeropower...and i think still does in some capacity, he's grade one instructor and had a squirrel at one stage. Have flown with him and he is an awesome guy. Very good instructor, and easy going. Best bet is to give Aeropower a ring (based at Redcliffe). The other option i can think of..not sure if possible of not... is Blue Tongue on the sunshine coast. I think Graeme can get in an AS350 when he needs one. Would also be great to do it with.
Good luck

Australian has a 350 at Mackay.

The CP has a rep as a demanding trainer... but just what you need if you wanna get it right.

Its one thing to be demanding, but can the chap impart knowledge at Mackay? Have seen my share of QFI's that don't have the right demeanour to be any where near an approved syllabus of TRG. This includes civil and mil. Go for some one with good cred and a flying organisation that will still have their shingle hanging the next morning after paying your first deposit.

Having flown with Johnny Caldwell I can recommend his cred. PM me for mobile if you wish. Having flown mil and civil for the last 15 yrs and been a QFI in both systems I can recognise who has it and who doesn't!!

Good Hunting!
