A Typical Event
A full day to
encompass four central activities: a helicopter
hover-challenge, London sightseeing by helicopter, aeroplane
hands-on flight and a flight into Heathrow Airport in a
flight simulator.
Helicopter Hover Challenge
Following a group briefing, the helicopter hover-challenge is
a 15-minute flight where each student handles the controls
and tries to remain in the hover. It is a very tricky
manoeuvre and great fun trying to keep the helicopter
steady.
Helicopter City of London Sightseeing
Sit back, relax and enjoy the view with an hour’s flight along
the line of the River Thames. Fly to the Millennium Dome and
back with views of Kew Gardens, St Paul’s the Cutty Sark,
Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye
to name just a few.
Aeroplane
Flying Lesson
After a group briefing, a hands-on 20-minute flight over the
beautiful Buckinghamshire countryside. Try flying straight
and level, climbing and descending, then return to the
airfield for the approach and landing.
Flight
Simulator
A 15-minute flight where each student is given the opportunity
to fly into and land at Heathrow Airport. Sorry, you cannot
pick up duty free goods!
Lunch
The airfield has a new restaurant, opened in Summer 2004, ‘The
Clubhouse’ offers superb facilities - a private function
room, outdoor picnic-style tables, waitress service and
great views. It’s somewhere to relax and watch the general
goings-on at the airfield whilst enjoying a hot or cold
buffet. There are plenty of choices with regards to the
lunch we can provide for your team.
