Tag: Helicopter Pilot Training

Just a few lines of thanks for my first helicopter lesson experience today. Please pass on my appreciation of the patience and thoroughness of the instructor (Ingo). Having done a bit of sailing and dabbled in model helicopters, these activities helped in appreciating the extreme sensitivity of the controls, especially during the hover. This first experience was rather like that first driving lesson, where you had this feeling of remoteness and not really in control! I thought it would be challenging but the sensitivity of this small craft was more than I expected – clearly an ideal helicopter to learn in. (Bit like learning to sail a dinghy first, before something bigger and more forgiving). So thank you again for this unforgettable experience.

Thank you so much for such a memorable day! We were made to feel very welcome and, due to the professionalism of the people we were in contact with, we felt in very safe hands.
