What Can I Expect
Isle of Wight helicopter lessons - a special place for learning to fly a helicopter! All the gorgeousness of England's second largest populated island is right there underneath your feet as you head up in a heli on a 20, 30 or 60-minute lesson!
Lessons are operated by four-seater helicopters out of Sandown Airport. These Robinson R44 choppers are renowned the world over for being stable, reliable and rugged. You will love flying the R44.
You'll also love Sandown Airport. Owned and run by the most enthusiastic aviators you could ever meet, the team's aim is to make flying enjoyable for all visitors, whether you're a pilot, learning to fly or a spectator. That's why there is free parking, a children's play area, some fascinating exhibits, a wonderful pizza oven and cafe on site. Everyone is invited to come and join in the fun.
Talking of which, being a four seater helicopter, means that (for a small additional charge) you can invite two guests to sit in the rear seats of the heli as you fly. It's a great little extra that'll make your experience even more memorable.
And of course, you don't need us to tell you how spectacular the views are going to be. As soon as you make that graceful rise into the sky, you will be surrounded by amazing Isle of Wight vistas and views across the patchwork countryside towards the sea.
We are offering 20, 30 and 60-minute helicopter lessons all year round from Isle of Wight Sandown Airport. All lessons are on a one-to-one basis and you'll have lots of time at the controls actually flying the heli. Whether you're an Islander or just visiting, this is a superb choice of destination.
