heli flight training device in socal?
 
my instrument rating is lacking currency. are there any flight schools in southern california that has a helicopter (!) flight training device???? maybe in the sf bay area?

SF Bay area try Sierra in Oakland.....but thats Northern CA.

But their Sim isn't far off aircraft price :rolleyes:

yeah, i had a feeling sierra would come up. not very fond of high sim prices. :(

I've heard that Mazzei Flying Service in Fresno is a good one...... Check out their site: flymfs.com

nope, mazzei doesn't have an heli ftd, nor roger helicopters in fresno. in socal, i've tried alexair, california helitech, universal air academy, la helicopters, pacific coast helicopters, orbic helicopters, and group 3 aviation. some of them have r22 ifr trainers, but my wallet screams when it hears the prices pr hour. :( i actually might have to go to oakland.

i know there is a simulator called flyit or something that just received the faa approval. anybody know any locations for these sims?
