CPL(H) Dragon Helicopters.

I didn't mean to cast nasturtiums on Sheffield - all I meant was that a local school is better, then you don't get involved in B & Bs etc. I know it would be a factor in my choice.

The new GS? I'm told it will be helicopter-specific and available in about as long as it takes to trundle through the system (realistically in about 6 months). The study material will not be from Bristol (nice though it is) and the instructors will be high timers with a lot of professional and practical knowledge (nutcases preferred).

The ultimate aim as I understand it would be to have the whole thing residential, i.e living and studying in the same place, but the market is small and it depends on demand.

My own experience of the dreaded theoretical side of aviation dictates that when choosing a college, experience is paramount, it' very easy to decide who to choose, just look at how long the college have been running thier courses.

But that's like saying that just because someone has loads of hours he's automatically a better pilot. They might have good notes and materials, but rubbish instructors
