I just flew out of Van Nuys into Camarillo for breakfast, so I am perfectly qualified for this question !

 

I fly out of TwinAir, VNY. The weather is better than CMA,the controllers are great and VNY has designated ATC freq's and routes...really easy once you learn them. There are 3 good schools at VNY, the other two fly a 300, TwinAir flys the R22 / R44 mostly.

 

Just PM me if you want to check out TwinAir and I will meet you over there. However, I always recommend you look at more than one school, and pick the one you are most comfortable with.

Group 3 aviation out of Van Nuys is a great school. I train there when I'm on the west coast. A nice size fleet of 300's and a couple of R44's. It's a super busy airport so you get a lot of practice on the radio as well a diverse training areas near by so you can practice off airport landings, pinnacle approaches and such without someone jotting down your N number and calling you in for landing in their back yard.

 

I fly with Travis or Hiroshi, two great instructors.
