Receiving a helicopter flying lesson as a gift is about as unforgettable as it gets. They'll be getting a hands-on flying experience that puts the thrill of piloting a helicopter firmly on the agenda.
Available as either a 30-minute or 60-minute lesson, this experience gives the lucky recipient the chance to step into the cockpit and discover what it really feels like to fly. With expert guidance throughout, they’ll learn the basics, take control in the air, and enjoy that unmistakable buzz that only comes from lifting off the ground in a helicopter. It’s exhilarating, eye-opening and very likely to spark a brand-new obsession.
Lessons take place at Oxford Airport or Leicester Airport, offering flexibility when it comes to choosing the perfect location. From the moment the rotors start turning, there’s a real sense of anticipation, followed by pure excitement as the helicopter rises smoothly into the sky. Flying a helicopter is completely different to being on a plane, it’s more responsive, more immersive, and gives you a genuine appreciation for the skill involved.
Trial lessons like this are ideal for anyone curious about flying, whether they’ve always dreamed of becoming a pilot or simply want to try something totally new. It’s also a brilliant way to tick off a big life goal without any long-term commitment. Thirty minutes offers an exciting introduction, while a full hour allows more time to build confidence on the controls and really settle into the experience.
This lesson is delivered by the UK’s leading professional helicopter pilot training academy, trusted by major industry operators and known for its exceptional standards. Safety, professionalism and student success are at the heart of everything they do, so participants can relax and enjoy every moment.
Perfect for birthdays and milestone celebrations, this helicopter flying lesson promises stories that will be told again and again.
