Hey everyone thanks so much for your support. Geoff and the team at Helipro you guys are fantastic at and have given our young men an experience most of them will never have again. Still waiting for our first pilot. Thanks Jamie you are right we have to do what it takes to help our young people with or without funding these Rangatahi are our future!!

Sounds like a fantstic programme.

Keep up the good work!

A bit of honesty and respect goes a long way.
