Havran Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Hi, I am looking for a place to fly about 30 hours solo in the R22 or R44. Anyone who knows about some good alternatives? Cheers Quote
TugBoat Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Hey man, I was traveling the country on business and stopped by Boise, Idaho to get some 44 time with Dennis of Heliquest Aviation. Best 12.5 hours I've spent in the air! An at $225/Hr flying through the moutains and canyons, an inexpensive exerience that can't be beat! Better act fast though, his ship is about 50 hours away from being down for overhaul! www.heliquestaviation.com Message me if you want to see some of the pics, can't post one right now from my phone. Still driving back to PA from CO! It's well worth the round trip ticket to Boise for the money you will save on the 30 hours!!! Dave Quote

Havran Posted September 15, 2011 Author Posted September 15, 2011 I live in Europe, so it doesn't really matter where I go. I have an FAA-CPL. Quote
rodrop Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 I live in Europe, so it doesn't really matter where I go. I have an FAA-CPL. So are you saying you are going to travel to the US to do this flying? Or, are you asking if anyone has anything in Europe? There is a posting for flight time in Virginia on here..so thats a good one if you are in Va. Quote
Adam S Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Kissimmee, FL has R44 for $300/hr solo with a 25 hour block. Great guys, great weather. Full down auto training. Couldn't ask for anything more. Let me know if you want any more info. Quote
Havran Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 Sorry for beeing vague. I'm planning to travel to the US, doesn't matter where in the US. The flight time can not be logged as "dual received", because then it can not be used towards my JAA conversion. Will check out the offer in VA. Thanks Quote

Boatpix Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 We always have the cheapest rates and if you find a cheaper rate you can always call me to see if I will match it. www.R22.us Quote
Havran Posted November 3, 2011 Author Posted November 3, 2011 I went to Jerry Trimble Helicopters in McMinnville, Oregeon to do the flying. Cheap rates and great people. Would definitely reccomend them. http://www.jerrytrimblehelicopters.com/ Cheers Quote
