About the experience
Take the controls of a Robinson R22 for a 45-minute helicopter flying lesson, complete with ground instruction and a commemorative certificate to take home. You'll begin with a briefing on how the aircraft actually works, then climb aboard and feel the rotors bite as the airfield drops away beneath you. With a qualified instructor calmly talking you through every input from the seat beside you, you'll ease into the controls and soak up views most people only ever glimpse through a window.

Helicopter lesson
For the participant this is a wonderful experience with lots of air time with an experienced instructor. However for spectators it’s not great, there is an ideal area to watch from and take pictures etc but that has been banned from use due to an issue they had some time ago. There are other options they could do to rectify this but haven’t therefore spectators are only allowed to view from the cafe further up which means they are very much not the part of the experience which is a shame. Therefore no pictures to show below

Misleading sales
Helicopter experience was amazing, Richard was a very good instructor. Sales are misleading 45min flying lesson is only actually 20mins flight time.

Excellent
Bought this as a Christmas prezzie for my husband. Today he had his experience & he was really pleased & enjoyed every minute, excellent brief beforehand, & now my son wants to experience the thrill too

Excellent helicopter lesson
I had a fantastic time with Richard from Heliair as my (very patient and cheerful) instructor, flying my very first helicopter from Gloucester Airport. Flew over the Malverns and even attempted to hover! Much recommended.
