If all you want to do is LEARN to fly a helicopter, then I suggest
that you check out any number of good flight schools. They average
around $200/hr with some as low as $165 for an R22.

The rotorway is a good ship, but like any homebuilt, its only as good
as they guy building it. New and unbuilt, they are around $65K, used,
around $30K. For $30K you could probably get your commercial heli
rating and have plenty left over for the celebration.

Hi,

am looking for is an (relatively) inexpensive, yet safe and (relatively)
up to date way to learn to fly a helicopter. Anyone have any personal
experience with Rotorway, good or bad?
