What Happens on a Helicopter Flight?
Head down to one of the centres located all over the UK to get started. On arrival, explorers are taken through a safety briefing. Then the pilot takes to the skies vertically, climbing up to 1,000 feet. Hovering above the country offers a view like no other.
Start with a Helicopter Lesson
Know a budding pilot looking to get in the air? Helicopter lessons give some much-needed time in the sky. It’s the perfect introduction to flying with a professional pilot giving a full rundown of how to fly. After takeoff, wannabe flyers take control to complete an electrifying hover challenge. Time spent in some sessions can even count towards a private licence!
Flight Locations
Half of the fun of a helicopter ride is the amazing view of the surrounding country. Visit Wales and get a 50-mile tour of beautiful sights, or head up to Perthshire in Scotland for a mountainous adventure. Tours of London show the sights of the capital, with all major landmarks visible. There’s no better way to soak in the beautiful scenery of the UK.
Take on a Gyrocopter Experience
For something a little more unique, Gyrocopters are a truly thrilling mode of transport. They’re a smaller, open-cockpit version of helicopters, exposing passengers to the elements at amazing heights!
