Chopperjess Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Hey guys. I have a friend who lives out in Shreveport, Louisiana and he let me know a couple days ago he wanted to learn to fly helicopters. So, I thought I'd ask you all here for recommendations and suggestions for him. Appreciate it! Jess Quote
ADRidge Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 I know there's a smaller school up north... I forgot the name, but a while back they were selling 25 hours of R-22 time for 5 grand on ebay. That was strictly PIC time and I highly doubt they only run 200/hr for dual. Down south there's Bristow Academy New Iberia, formerly Vortex Helicopters; and Johnston Flying Services in Houma. I've seen the products of both school (we have some JFS students here) and I think that your friend would be better off making the commute or move to New Iberia to get his training done. Quote
Chopperjess Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Thanks! Appreciate the info. So you're suggesting to steer clear of JFS? I'm a little confused, thanks =D Quote
