Experience the thrill of flying a helicopter yourself with a helicopter introductory training flight. Your helicopter introductory training flight will take place in a 2-seater helicopter, a Robinson R22. 

At the heliport, you will be introduced to your helicopter instructor and to the dual-control training helicopter. Your helicopter training session will begin with a briefing about what makes a helicopter fly, what the various controls do and what you must do whilst flying the helicopter. Then you’re off on a 30-minute helicopter training flight (flight time measured from step on to step off, time airborne between 20-24 minutes).

Within the first five minutes you'll be trying your hand at the helicopter controls. One by one, more helicopter controls will be introduced to you until, toward the end of the helicopter training flight, you could have full control. You'll be able to test your skills by maintaining a steady flight path, changing direction and experimenting with hover control. This helicopter introductory training flight is one of the greatest adventures you can try.

awesome fun, much different feeling to what I expected which made the experience more enjoyable. The pilot was excellent, calm (thank goodness) and helpful. I wanted more.

I have always wanted to learn to fly, and after receiving this helicopter lesson as a gift from my wonderful partner, I was able to! And all i can say is WOW, this was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life. I definitely recommend this to anyone who has an interest in learning to fly. I had the controls for most of the flight around the Melbourne CBD, and the adrenaline rush was unbelievable. This definetely won't be my last helicopter lesson. Thank you!

Best to do this one when you have a day off the next day, I got no sleep that night, I was buzzing for days from the adrenalin. I'd never been in a Helicopter before, after 5 minutes up in the air I was flying one over the beautiful coastline myself!
