Looking for a unique gift that’ll really lift someone’s spirits? The R22 Helicopter Simulator Experience could be just the ticket. Whether it's a birthday surprise, a Father’s Day treat or a memorable day out for an aviation enthusiast, this is a high-flying gift idea they won’t forget.
Set inside a real Robinson R22 helicopter airframe, this fixed-base simulator feels just like the real thing. With 4K projectors and a stunning 180° wraparound screen, it gives you the full flying experience. Better yet, it’s based at London Luton Airport, the only simulator of its kind in the UK located at an international airport.
Perfect for anyone aged 12 and over, this experience is fully tailored to the person taking the controls. After a warm welcome and refreshments, your instructor will help plan the flight route and chat through any aviation interests. Whether you want to hover, navigate cross-country, or even tackle an engine failure drill, your session is shaped around you.
Next, it’s time to step into the briefing room for a 15-minute overview of the R22’s flight controls and instruments. Then the moment you've been waiting for, climbing into the cockpit and taking the Captain’s seat. With 30, 45 or 60 minutes of flight time, depending on the voucher chosen, you’ll take the controls under expert guidance.
From low-level manoeuvres to practicing emergency procedures, this is as close to piloting a real helicopter as you can get without leaving the ground.
Once your flight is complete, enjoy another round of refreshments and chat with your instructor about what you've just experienced.
Whether you’re gifting to a wannabe helicopter pilot or someone who’s simply up for a new challenge, this immersive flight simulator experience is sure to impress.
