    Hi Tom, how weird, a minute ago a R44 flew over my house at about 600' and an alert popped for your video. Good to hear from you. Hope all is well, glad that your training is ongoing.

    So Tom mate, how does it feel having to dress up as "Lawrence of Arabia" in the desert just to fly a chopper then? LOL!! Great video though loved it. Is the R44 very different from the 22 then that you need a type rating?

      Hahaha and no it's just how licensing for helicopters work. You need to do a type rating for each type before you can fly it.
