Very nice! I was considering getting my commercial heli add on through them. I decided I'm too far along though to switch over to whirly birds. I'm already employed and don't feel like getting another loan for more flight lessons. They sure are fun though!

Sounds like you had an awesome time!  I have a few hours in helicopters and it was some of the absolute best stick time I've logged to date.  I love the fact that it demands absolute 100% attention  the entire time.  Wonderful machines.  The only thing that even compres to the fun of flying a helicopter is aerobatic flying.  Helicopters may be able to hover and fly backwards... but they can't fly upside down. lol  
The day is always better when you're flying upside down.

I'd say picking up banners in a fixed wing is pretty darn fun too! Extremely challenging too!
