Red Letter Days Product InformationWith this helicopter flight experience you'll join this select club (well, you'll fly in a helicopter, we can't make you a millionaire). After a briefing on helicopter flying techniques and safety, climb aboard a dual-controlled training helicopter, usually a Robinson R22. You'll be accompanied by an expert pilot, so you'll be in safe hands. The vertical take-off is astounding, and the thrills will continue as your pilot shows you how the chopper can move forward, backward, sideways or simply hover motionless in the air. Frankly, it makes planes seem run of the mill! At the pilot's discretion, you'll have the chance to take the controls on your helicopter flight, and feel for yourself the adrenaline rush of manoeuvring these amazing craft.
