Michael Lukas
Absolutely brilliant loved every minute would love to do it again
Sean Didlick
My Helicopter Experience was amazing I didnt want it to end. Everyone at Shobdon airfield were really friendly especially James, the flight instructor. He made me feel very comfortable and was very patient. I even got to fly the helicopter myself Its also great for friends and family to come along and watch. They have a great kitchen diner where you can help yourself to drinks and a small balcony to watch from.All in all a great day. Would highly recommend.
Chris
Fantastic time flying with James He was very patient and let me take the controls for most of the flight.
Carolyn Burgess
This was a special birthday gift for my partner who is one of those people who has tried just about everything and is very difficult to buy a present for The flight took place on a perfect day weather wise and my partner didnt stop smiling from start to finish. The welcome and intro was thorough and informative, pilot James was absolutely the best, so knowledgable, skilled, friendly and with a great sense of humour. I was allowed to look round the helicopter and to get up close and personal to take lots of pictures to commemorate the day .. all in all a fabulous experience for both my partner and myself Definitely recommend and will be booking again

I booked a helicopter lesson at Shobdon Airfield in Herefordshire as a special birthday present for my partner it was a long held ambition of his to be behind the controls and the experience fulfilled all his wishes. Instructor James was exemplary and inspired every confidence as they flew over the beautiful countryside. My partners big smile said it all as they landed a truly memorable day
