Live out your pilot dreams and experience the unbeatable thrill of flying a helicopter yourself with a helicopter introductory training flight at Australia’s Leading Helicopter School.

After you're introduced to your instructor and to the dual-control training helicopter, your training session will begin with a briefing about what makes a helicopter fly, what the various controls do and what you need to do while flying the helicopter. Then soak up the anticipation and buckle in for take off. You'll soar over incredible views on an adrenaline-pumping training flight!

Within the first five minutes you'll be trying your hand at the helicopter controls. One by one, more helicopter controls will be introduced to you until you have full control. You'll be able to test your skills by maintaining a steady flight path, changing direction and possibly experimenting with hover control. This helicopter introductory training flight is one of the greatest adventures you can try.
