About the experience
Experience the thrill of airborne adventure with our 60-minute helicopter lessons over Newcastle! Whether you've always dreamt of flying a chopper or simply want to explore the stunning landscapes of the Northeast from a new perspective, our helicopter rides are the perfect choice. Flights take off from Newcastle International Airport in the school's Robinson R44 helicopter. Your aerial adventure begins with a ground briefing by your CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) approved helicopter flying instructor, who will provide personalized one-to-one instruction. In addition to the breathtaking aerial views over Newcastle, you'll have the exhilarating opportunity to take the controls. As you manoeuvre the chopper and even attempt hovering at a fixed altitude, you'll be immersed in an unforgettable experience. It's an adventure unlike any other, and we're confident that it will leave a lasting impression. For thrill-seekers and helicopter enthusiasts alike, a trial helicopter lesson in Newcastle offers an exceptional introduction.
