YOU MAY ALSO WANT TO CONSIDER:
Introductory Flight Lesson
During this introductory flight lesson you can experience the thrill and excitement of piloting a helicopter yourself. The lesson will start with a short ground briefing, followed by an aircraft inspection that every pilot performs before each flight. Afterwards you will enter the cockpit and follow the checklist to start-up the engine and to spin-up the rotors. When ready for take-off you will lift off vertically and soar through the skies. You will be piloting the helicopter the entire time under the close supervision of an experienced flight instructor. In total you will be on the control of the helicopter for approximately 30 minutes. You will treasure this flight for the rest of your life, whether this will be a one-time adventure or the first step towards becoming a certified helicopter pilot. $250.00 per person - minimum 1 student; a relative or friend may ride along for only $49.00 extra.
Extended Introductory Flight Lesson
This Extended Introductory Flight Lesson is essentially the same Introductory Flight Lesson detailed above. However, your flight time during the extended lesson will be twice as long as during the regular Introductory Flight Lesson. $399.00 per person - minimum 1 student; a relative or friend may ride along for only $75.00 extra.
Double your Training Experience and Pay Less!
If you bring a friend who also wants to experience the thrill and excitement of piloting a helicopter, then each of you will go on TWO flights instead of just one: during one flight you will be sitting up front and piloting the helicopter while your friend is able to observe your flight lesson. During the other flight your friend is on the flight controls and you sit in the back observing the flight and the interactions between the instructor and your friend. Being on two flights in a row - once as the pilot and once as an observer - is a very valuable experience especially if you are still trying to decide if becoming a certified helicopter pilot or maybe even a professional career helicopter pilot is the right path for you. Additioanlly, each of you will be flying along as an observer FOR FREE. Thus, you save $150 on two extended introductory flights or $98 on two regular introductory flights. $250.00 per person for regular Introductory Flight Lessons - $399.00 per person for Extended Introductory Flight Lessons; NO CHARGE for flying in each other's lessons as observers. An additional person may ride along on both flights for only $100.00 extra.
