A solid introduction to helicopter controls, as well as navigation and observation, this tactical trial lesson teaches the skills needed to get a Private Pilot’s Licence – and from high up in a chopper, views are stunning! Start with a briefing which includes a talk on all aspects of a safe and successful helicopter flight. Next, it’s time to hop into a four-seater R44 helicopter and take to the skies with an exciting vertical lift-off. Take turns at being a passenger and a pilot – the best way to learn how guide a helicopter through the skies and sit back and take in the views from the ground below.
