General information
Deal overview
Your course starts at Gamston Airport, where, under the supervision of a professional and friendly pilot, you'll grasp the essential techniques of flying a helicopter. Our purpose is to deliver a personal approach so you can operate the aircraft yourself. We'll go on board our R44 helicopter, the perfect aircraft to learn at your pace.
Our training also includes coaching on how to speed and power changes, an introduction to hovering for helicopters, autorotation and how to land safely without the use of engine power. We guarantee you'll have a safe and fun experience. Our approach is to help you give the first steps for you to become a professional pilot.
You'll have the chance to fly for two hours (at least) to catch the best views of our areas. It's something we can't describe. To add an extra touch we include complimentary drinks and breakfast or lunch! Isn't it great? We arrange every detail to make your adventure an unmatching one. Please be aware our flights are plus VAT at the prevailing rate, and the hours you fly count to obtain your private pilot's license. It's the perfect start to your flying journey!
