huns Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Posted February 12, 2008 was looking at tech helecopters in bc anyone know it? Quote
Cole Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 Heh, do your homework, pretty much every school has some info on this site. Ive heard good things about tech, and that PWH just hired one of there students (i may be wrong) But do some digging on the site and you'll find what youre looking for. Quote
Amphibious Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 was looking at tech helecopters in bc anyone know it? I did my CPL @ Tech, greg is an excellent instructor and a real stickler on skill development. after going to 2 other schools post CPL, I'm VERY happy with the training I got a tech. he has acomedations on site and they are excellent hosts. Mustang just hired one of their students too guys from my class (4 of us) are working for Transwest, Highland, Mustang, the other when home to barbados and is cojo on a twinstar (I think) Quote
xrkyle Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 he has acomedations on site and they are excellent hosts. What are the accommodations like? Chateau Atco or? Quote
Amphibious Posted February 18, 2008 Report Posted February 18, 2008 very clean, new Atco. own room, has a kitchen, 30ft from hanger. better then my college dorm Quote
TooTall Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 How is it to do training in The US? I have an offer from a school in Aurora, OR to do all my licenses. Look at sunsethelicopters.com and let me know what you guys think about going down to The US to do my training? Cost and so. I know they can help with accommodation TT Quote
iceman88 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 If you have no worries about money and want the best training ( in my opinion) then you should call up Canadian Helicopters in Penticton B.C. They are an advanced training base which give mountain course to many countries military. But they also do CPL on special occasion. Quote
huns Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 does anyone know abot california avation? they are offering a job instructing when the course is finished. Quote
Cole Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Iceman88, you sure had a tonne of people convinced CHL was the way to go about this time last year... you also had the majority of them convinced out right that they'd have companies pay for their training top to bottom. It was actually kind of fun to watch the first few make phone calls asking operators if they would foot the bill for training at Canadian. Cheers Cole Quote
