Want to experience seeing “God’s own country” from many thousands of feet up in the air? Then this helicopter flight will give you a taste of North Yorkshire from a birds eye view. You’ll be taking off from a former RAF base just outside the historic cathedral city of York, at Elvington Airfield. Used primarily as an air base for Halifax heavy bombers from RAF Elvington - as it was known then - as well as being used after the war by French squadrons and the US American Air Force, who at one time used it as a Strategic Air Command base - although it was never fully operational. Today, civil aviation has returned to this popular airfield which is surrounded by stunning Yorkshire countryside, and you’ll get to see this and the surrounding area as you never have before, and the far reaching views beyond that are sure to leave a lasting impression.
