This helicopter lesson provider is an approved CAA Flight Training Organisation, based on Manston airport. Also known as Kent International Airport, it is known for the really long runway which is easily big enough for 747s to land and take off.
On the two-seater sessions it's be you and your instructor pilot, with one to one tuition bespoke to you. If you choose a lesson in the four seater helicopter, you can invite a friend or loved one to join you onboard as a passenger. For all flights you will enjoy a pre-flight briefing where you are shown all the controls. Once airborne, you will take the controls of the chopper yourself. Those on a 40 or 60 minute helicopter lesson will get to learn more about the classic manoeuvre of hovering.
Whichever experience you choose, these helicopter lessons in Kent are sure to please with excellent facilities for friends and family to get close to the take off and landing action too.
