Flying in Antigua
Does anyone know if there are any helicopter schools on Antigua?
I've found a heli tour company (run by Mike Fleming, a Canadian), but no schools so far.

The only heli school in the Caribbean is Hummingbird Aviation Training in Trinidad (just down the road), flying Enstrom 280's.
Caribbean Helicopters in Antigua just do tours of Antigua and Montserrat in Jetrangers I believe.

When you're a PPL and spend half your life in court fighting cases and the other half preparing cases for trial, the thought of hanging up your wig and gown and doing a little helicopter flying in the Caribbean seems like paradise.
I asked about schools because I assumed SFH would be difficult.
Bunch of money?
I thought it would be American prices.
Maybe I'll stick to scuba diving or find a cheap fixed-wing.

"hanging up your wig and gown "
Whats with this Cross Dressing or Helicopter Flying........
And for Nigel, cheap is not always good....... FL and I have discussed the matter and it appears he will just have to enjoy the Islands. Leave the flying to the Underpaid Pilots who are continually whining about Pay, Working Conditions, ex-Wives, Debt Collectors and doing it with a smile in someone elses Helicopter.
