Back on Track for the summer !

After a very difficult time in June we have finally found our feet and we are back on track !

The students here at BHH have been fantastic and I want to thank all of them for the help and support over the last six weeks. We have been crazy busy and flew 100 + hours in the last five weeks. 300CK has just not a had a rest ! BUT we have a new helicopter on its way , its down in Oklahoma right now and we will be bringing it up to MA in the next 10 days . This of course is great news and brings us back on track again to 2 schweizers and the R44 , there is also the EC120 for the bigger jobs and the support from Boston Executive helicopters for charter.


I first want to tell everyone about Derek , he started our 12 week program to become a Private pilot and did it in exactly 11 weeks and 5 days with no previous experience in any kind of aircraft , Derek you did a great job and we are all very pleased ! Derek has proven that our 12 week program works . Derek had less than 70 hours when he gained his license.





The next news here at BHH is the arrival of the new flight instructor Salustiano Fragoso. Sal comes to BHH with almost 2000 hours of flight time in schweizers and Astars , He needed a break from NY City and moved back to his native Boston to enjoy some teaching time at BHH. He is on the schedule and is already giving Adrian some well earned time off ! Come by and meet him anytime , he can tell you all about flying in Ny City and his other love capoeira


So things are going well and we will be looking forward to the arrival of the new schweizer as soon as its ready ! stop by anytime and look for the next open house .

All at BHH

P.S For those of you have been asking , Rebecca is doing great and walking with crutches , she is still beating me at words with friends on the Ipad !
