    Take to the skies with a Helicopter trial lesson, from either our Cardiff or Welshpool base. All lessons start with a half hour briefing before taking off in either our R22, R44 or Jet Ranger aircraft. You'll take a tour of the local area and get an opportunity to take control of the helicopter yourself (lesson time counts towards hours required for a pilot's license).

    Our Hover Challenge not only allows you to experience the hover during a flight, but also to take the controls and have a go at hovering the aircraft yourself! Your instructor will demonstrate each of the helicopter’s controls during the first 20 minutes of your flights with the last 10 minutes dedicated to your challenge.

  • Charter Service

    With a top speed of around 120mph, helicopters are one of the most efficient ways to travel, avoiding traffic jams and overcrowded trains. Our charter service is ideal for sporting events, airport to hotel drops, or when only a helicopter will do the job of getting you there in style and on time. Come fly with us!
