The 30 Minute Trial Lesson in a Robinson R22 is the perfect introduction to the world of helicopter flying. Designed for first-time flyers and aspiring pilots, this experience allows you to step into the pilot’s seat and discover what it truly feels like to fly a helicopter.
After a professional pre-flight briefing with a qualified flight instructor, you will take off in the Robinson R22, a proven and widely used training helicopter. During the flight, you will be introduced to the basic principles of helicopter control, including hovering, gentle manoeuvres and coordinated flight. Under the close supervision of your instructor, you will actively participate in flying the aircraft, gaining hands-on experience rather than simply observing.
This trial lesson is not just a sightseeing flight. It is a real training session that gives you an authentic insight into pilot training and helicopter handling. The instructor will explain procedures, instruments and flight techniques while adapting the lesson to your comfort level and interest.
The 30 Minute Trial Lesson is ideal for anyone curious about becoming a helicopter pilot, considering formal flight training, or simply looking for an unforgettable aviation experience. The flight time can also be credited towards a future Private Pilot Licence PPL(H) should you decide to continue your training.
