great experience

Fabulous experience and the staff were great. Pilot made each of us flying feel very much at ease and really did explain the controls and flying really clearly and easy to follow when actually flying. Definitely a great experience.

Great Experience

Had a wonderful experience. From welcome to goodbye the staff were friendly. The flying experience was what I expected but with more time at the controls that I expected. Instructor Tom put me at ease as he explained and demonstrated how to control helicopter.

Missing oxygen masks ;)

Great experience thanks to our instructor Pete who was very knowledgable and friendly. We flew over Reading and Henley on Thames area, beautiful clear sky, not much traffic up in the air (oposite to M4 and M25 typical day)...It was absolutely great and would recomment to anyone ...without fear of flying or motion sickness obviously. Thank you White Waltham Airfield club.

Memories made

Absolutely brilliant experience that just got better as it went on. I booked last minute so the operator (FlyDays) had not been able to confirm my voucher in time. I called adventure 001 at the airport and the woman was extremely helpful. I was then called back by her husband, who had received my online query (advise a few days to reply but it was within an hour). He sent the check in details through and was very helpful. We parked very near (on site) with no issues. Check in was quick and simple. Names taken and weights checked. We were offered an upgrade to the front seat for my son for a small donation to the air ambulance. To make sure he’d be comfortable, we were taken out to the helicopter to see it and make sure he knew what to expect. I witnessed 2 passengers being refunded due to being intoxicated. It was handled so delicately and professionally that despite being 2 meters from us in a quiet area, my son was none-the-wiser. The instructions were clear and ‘boarding’ was straightforward, with pictures being taken of us with the aircraft. Once on, I did find that I was extremely squashed as the passenger beside me was very sightly larger. This meant that I could not access my seatbelt until she had vacated the helicopter and couldn’t sit back for the duration of the flight. Also the headsets that enable us to communicate only allowed this for about 30 seconds until all that could be heard was the ‘control room’. Whilst this was fascinating, I was unable to communicate with my son who was in front of me. And he was unable to communicate with me. 2 things were pointed out during the flight by the pilot, however I could not hear what these were. On landing, we were guided off and back to the terminal, where we were met by the friendly staff who could not do enough for us. We had pictures and a mini bottle of bubbly, and bid farewell. All staff made a little fuss of my boy, which made him feel comfortable and special. For the experience, it was worth the money, even if I am a little bruised from being wedged against the door! Would definitely do this again, there’s something addictive about gliding in a helicopter! And what a lovely team to guide us through. Thanks all.
