Overview

Learning to fly a helicopter is probably one of the hardest things you will ever do. Even though, as the company owner, I have been flying for over 22 years, I can still remember the first time I tried to fly. It was an exhilarating experience. However, I wish I had had a simulator then to practice on first so that I could learn the basics before getting into the actual aircraft. That was one of my main drivers for investing in this incredibly advanced SIM and I firmly believe that being the only company to have this makes an enormous amount of difference to the learning experience but making you more familiar and comfortable and makes you get far more out of the flying portion.

Activity itinerary

This fully immersive flight training experience puts you in both the simulator and the aircraft to give you an incredible day. The R44 is larger than the R22, easier to fly, and can take up to two passengers to share in your time. You will start in the advanced simulator for around 15 minutes where you will learn basic helicopter controls, go over all the applicable safety considerations and get to know your instructor. You will then go into the aircraft for 60 minutes, where you will fly above Long Beach, the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles and perhaps even some of Palos Verdes. In this time, you will learn all the basic controls and manoeuvres in helicopters, including straight and level flight, climbs and descents and turns. You will then return to the airport and go to a special landing pad where you will learn hovering manoeuvres and maybe even picking up and setting down the aircraft. You'll be surprised and just how much you can accomplish in one hour! This 60 min flight and 15 min sim lesson counts towards your licence should you want to continue with us for flight training. What a gift!
