Great gift

I recently purchased this as a gift for a plane trip, and it turned out to be a great choice. I really liked that you could add a pre-selected extra for an additional charge it was optional, of course, but it definitely enhanced the overall experience and made the gift feel more special, almost reminiscent of something out of Fifty Shades of Grey. Overall, I had a very positive experience and would absolutely consider purchasing again. I’m looking forward to using it.

3rd time lucky

After 2 attempts in the summer, cancelled due to poor weather conditions, it was 3rd time lucky. The staff were very friendly and helpful on all occasions, and apologetic when cancelled. The flight was smooth and interesting, going over the sea, over a castle and grounds etc. About 15 minutes into the flight, you take over the controls, under the guidance of the pilot.

45 Minute One to One Helicopter Challenge Experience at Heli Air

Just do it. Still buzzing from flying such an experience.

Such a great buzz, I took the controls myself for part of the flight and flew for over 15 minutes, such an experience to be up in the sky and see the beautiful countryside in this way, it will stay with me for a long while. Such a good location for me too being 45 mins from London, the guys at the Sandy venue were so helpful, I travelled by train and they picked me up from nearby station. Couldn’t help looking up at the sky on the way home, hard to believe I was up there....

Fantastic experience

We took my 3 children, 16, 19 & 21, to the Bedford Micro light Centre yesterday to redeem their vouchers (it was a Christmas present) and we had a great time. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by all the staff who friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Our instructor conducted a thorough safety briefing and put us all at ease - we were all a bit nervous initially, having never done this before. Before taking off he turned the micro light around and taxied slowly past the viewing area each time so that we were able to take photos/videos before each of them went up - nice touch. It was quite a chilly day, so the wood burner in the reception area helped keep us all warm. The children had a wonderful day and we would strongly recommend the Bedford venue - thank you.
