Nothing else comes close to touching the magic of vertical flight. From the moment you lift into the air to the second the helicopter settles gracefully back on the ground it is an unforgettable experience. Take your seats as the pilot climbs gracefully to over 1,000 feet and accelerates to over 120 miles an hour. You will interact with the pilot via the headset (don 't forget to listen out for air traffic on the radio!), swooping over the landscape and then settling gently back on the ground.
On arrival you will meet your pilot and receive a brief technical and safety briefing then it 's up, up and away as you accelerate vertically into the skies. Your pilot will put the helicopter through its paces to show you just how versatile these incredible machines really are. Watch the world pass beneath you before coming into land after a five minute adrenaline rush that is sure to be the envy of all your friends!

Age: 25-34
Bought by: Partner
Occasion: Christmas
I was so disappointed when I bought this gift for my fiancé. I tried to book it for Newcastle which is one destination listed. When I got to the booking stage I was informed that unless I payed a further £110 for an extra ten minutes I could not fly from Newcastle. I now have to arrange a time that we can get somewhere else inconvenient in the country. My partner is in the services and currently based at the other end of the country in Plymouth. The last thing he wants to do on one of his few weekends
Off is drive over the country to find somewhere we can fly from. Have been left thoroughly disappointed, Upset and let down. Will not be purchasing items from site again.
