Robinson R22

This small two-seater is ideal for training. As one of the world’s most popular helicopters the R22 is tasked with many things. It’s relatively low operating costs make learning to fly helicopters an economical option.

Robinson R44

This four seat version of the R22 is rapidly becoming a more popular alternative to the Bell 206 due to lower operating costs and similar performance. It’s better cabin design offers greater visibility and enjoyment for passengers.

Bell 47 (M*A*S*H)

The first ever civilian licensed helicopter, the Bell 47 has been one of the world’s longest serving helicopters. Our aircraft is an ex British Army machine bearing her original Army/UN livery that she bore whilst serving in Cyprus.

Great fun to fly and certainly an attention grabber!

Hiller-12E4

An extremely rare machine. Our Hiller flew in the famous Bond film Goldfinger and has also flown Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton! More recently she has featured in an episode of ITVs The Royal It’s spacious cabin is ideal for you and a few friends.

A true Classic helicopter.

Bell Jetranger (206)

Originally developed as a military observation helicopter. The cabin can accommodate 5 people. The turbine makes a lovely noise and generally the helicopter is quite a showstopper when it comes to ‘dropping in’ with friends!

EC120 Colibri

A very fast Jetranger! 5 seats, excellent all round visibility, larger cabin, and tremendous power. If you’re looking for a challenge then maybe you’ll find it in this one! Brilliant fun for business or family.

MD500

The 'Ferrari' of the fleet! Our 500E is available for Training and Self Fly Hire. Famous for Magnum PI amongst other things, its performance and manouverability is unmatched by the rest. Designed for the Los Angeles Police to land in the streets of LA - this thing is awesome!
