Safety

Our helicopters are maintained on site by Brian Seedle Helicopters, licensed engineers check the helicopters every fifty flying hours and our instructors check each aircraft thoroughly before each flight.

 

Spectators

Participants are more than welcome to bring spectators who can look around and have their pictures taken in the helicopter. We have a comfortable lounge where spectators can stay during the flight but also view their loved one taking off, hovering and landing.

 

Weather

Flying is weather dependant; on the day of the flight please contact us to see if the weather is suitable. If it is not suitable we will be able to re-book the flight for another day.

 

Limitations

Participants must be under 17 stones (108kg) to fly in the Robinson R22 and under 21 stones (133kg) to fly in the Robinson R44. This is due to the mass and balance limitations of the aircraft.
