Flying a Helicopter in Leicester – 30 Minutes

The Experience

Your helicopter adventure begins with a warm welcome and a clear pre-flight briefing from your instructor. They’ll introduce you to the Cabri G2 and explain what to expect during your flight.

While at the controls, you’ll also enjoy sweeping views of the countryside below, adding to the excitement of the experience.
