On arrival at your chosen location you will be welcomed and receive a briefing from a member of our specialist helicopter flight team. You will then have the chance to see and hear the helicopter up close before stepping aboard the aircraft and watching the earth shrink beneath you as your pilot climbs gracefully to over 1,000 feet in the air, accelerating the helicopter to speeds of 120mph. You can talk with your pilot via the headset and listen in on air traffic on the radio. Swooping in the helicopter over the landscape is a terrific rush and once you’ve seen the people below turn into tiny specks you will then settle gently back onto the ground. The operator encourages cameras to be taken along as this helicopter ride is an exhilarating experience you will want to relive again and again!
