warmkiter Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Hi I am spending some time in Dallas and wanted to go flying there. Any suggestions for a Flightschool who also charters R22 near Dallas. Thanks a lot Lars Quote
Boatpix Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 We have a helicopter in nearby Austin. Call me with what you mean by "charter" as "solo rental to others" might be what the insurance calls that: 561-346-2816 1 Quote
Carpenter Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Call Kenneth Pyatt in Garland at SKY Helicopters. Great organization operating out of a heliport. The number is 214.349-7000 and their located at 2559 S Jupiter road. Have fun! Quote

ADRidge Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Call Kenneth Pyatt in Garland at SKY Helicopters. Great organization operating out of a heliport. The number is 214.349-7000 and their located at 2559 S Jupiter road. Have fun! Definitely either call Sky or Longhorn at 940-387-2193 Quote
Auto-Rotation-Nation Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 GO TO SKY!!! end of story they are awesome up there, that is where I plan on going to get my PPL 1 Quote
warmkiter Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 Hi Guys Thanks for the Info. Seems that sky ist the school only around Dallas. The only drawback is, that they dont let charter or take pax without robinson factory course, wich i dont yet have.Any other suggestions, and please keep in mind, that for us europeans a 4 hours cardrive is not around Dallas. In that time you cross at least 3 countries here;-) Lars Quote
TXFirefly Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 My vote is for SKY, like everyone else. You also have Longhorn and All American in Denton which is less than an hour drive north, both of which operate Schweizers. The only other option is Epic in Ft. Worth an hour west. They use Robinson, but I'm not sure they will be any different than Sky as far as their restrictions. Quote

Every once and a while he posts an ad for cheap R22 time-building, and he always says, "anywhere in the USA". Quote
