About this activity
When you arrive with us, enjoy the warm and friendly atmosphere at our Helicopter Club Office. Take in the sights as you look across amazing views of a busy airfield before meeting with your Instructor. Before taking your flight you will be taken aside for a full safety briefing and a look at how the helicopter controls work. When you’re ready, you will enter the aircraft and your instructor will take you out over the beautiful Surrey countryside to try flying for yourself. On return to the airfield, try your hand at hovering the aircraft 3 feet above the ground a real test of skill!
If you have ever wanted to try flying a helicopter there are a number of different options available to suit your budget. Our Explorer Lesson is designed to give you a slightly more involved taste of flight than the Discovery Lesson. Both the Robinson R22 and Cabri Guimbal G2 helicopters are 2 seater aircraft where you and the instructor will be alone in the aircraft. Our Robinson R44 helicopter has 4 seats, and you will be able to bring 2 other flight enthusiasts along for the experience.
Most important of all, unlike many flight experience providers the published flight time is the actual time in the air and does not include the time in the classroom. Helicopters are probably the most exciting and rewarding machine to master.
The total flight time is estimated at 45 minutes, but we recommend allowing an hour and a half for the whole experience with us.
