Copter flight over St Ives
Wow, wow, wow............... loved it. Although the voucher bought for me was only for 15 mile trip I would happily go again but for a much longer time up in the air to cover more area....... The pilot was chatty and told us lots of information of where we were flying above..... Thank you Luke :-)

15 mile helicopter flight
Couldn't fault the whole experience. Booking was easy, the directions to the airfield were simple and accurate, checking in was simple, the briefing easy to understand. The flight was brilliant. Luke the pilot was really good, informing us about the landmarks, and even doing a slight detour to fly over the other couple on the flights village. All over too soon. Will definitely do it again and recommend to anyone.

A great experience
Not only had an upgrade offered and accepted to a longer flight, but also had the co-pilot seat. A great experience with a knowledgeable pilot and full briefing from the ground crew. Despite gloomy weather a wonderful tour of Liverpool from Aintree Racecourse.

GOING UP
I thought that the whole experience was great. I have flown in passenger planes before but never in a Helicopter. The briefing and the boarding was fine and made one feel at ease with the whole procedure. Would I recommend it again. Yes.

good experience. ....but!
Went on this experience last June from Newport. enjoyed the experience but felt pressured to donate to there chosen charity to which they asked whoever sat next to pilot. All four of us had already payed £40 extra for the so called thrill ride which tbh wasn't worth the extra. I do recommend the experience but less pressure please

15 mile Helicopter Pleasure Flight
A very long wait for a 3pm flight which took place at 5-15pm However I thoroughly enjoyed the flight. The Pilot staff were very friendly and helpful. Booking in staff were friendly and polite but no ID material was requested (I was told there could be spot checks). Cafe facilities were cleane but very hot inside. Staff did well to cope. Overall organisation could have been a little bit slicker, but the staff were very polite & friendly staff. Good flight and a great voucher experience.
