What Can I Expect

Soar over the city skies on these helicopter lessons out of Nottingham Airport! Tollerton's airport is tucked away behind the Nottinghamshire village of the same name and is offering 30-minute lessons in two and four-seater helicopters.

The team at Nottingham Airport is made up of a trio of passionate, experienced and dedicated pilots. They have many, many hours of flying amongst them and love nothing more than to give first-time chopper riders their inaugural taste of heli flying.

This Tollerton-based operator uses both two seater R22 and four seater R44 helicopters for these lessons. These Robinsons are two of the best-known helicopters used worldwide for training purposes - and they're great fun to fly.

Being a well-established airfield, there's everything the general aviator needs to get flying, including grass and tarmac runways, as well as hangarage facilities. For these helicopter lessons in particular, there are three H spot landing pads.

You'll be exploring the East Midlands to the limits of the Leicestershire/Nottinghamshire border. From your unique vantage point, you'll look down on all that classic English countryside. Your flight is treated as a proper lesson, so prepare yourself for taking control and actually flying the heli by yourself (under constant guidance of course!).

Book your helicopter lesson out of Nottingham's Tollerton Airport and get ready to fly!
