hi,
Hi Stefano, You can try at www.aereafto.com (R22 and A109), www.topfly.com (R-22, AS-355F) , or www.intercopters.com (R-22, R-44, A109).
I think there are 2 or 3 more... but those are the most serius in my opinion.
good luck!!!

Try also FAASA FAASA, a friend of mine is with them & it was the best option, despite he's not very happy, in all cases, don't forget to bargain very hard to get a better price...
Also you can think about Portugal, Big emigration of Spanish Pilots to the Portuguese CAA until they had to close the doors.... in Spain the national Authorities sucks (In Portugal they used to work within 3 days instead 3 months is Spain !! Portuguese CAA is very reliable & work really good compared with Spain, in Portugal u have 2 options:
Helibravo
| Compañía Aeronáutica Gestair, Empresa Aeronáutica Gestair ex aerocondor

Si affidano alla buona sorte

I recommed you AEREA Aérea FTO - Centro de Formación Aeronáutica
I did my IFR and my ATPL(H) there and they mean bussines.
If you are interested on IFR jobs that would be a good one to go.
In the other hand if you re more interested on Firefighting, FAASA is a good choice as well.
However as somebody said here, be advise our Civil Aviation Authority is surely not the fastest and easiest in Europe .
Anyway, if you go through an FTO they will take care of all paperwork and procedures so this issue would mean not much difference to you.
