How does it work flying with RotorPro Helicopter Experience?
What we fly
We fly the Robinson R44 and Bell 206 Jet Ranger. The R44 takes up to three passengers and the Bell 206 up to four passengers. If you’re interested in the technical side, we can explain how they work in more detail and answer any questions you have.
Where we fly
Our Gloucestershire airport base gives convenient access to many parts of the country. You can travel in any direction and return to base or land away. Flights are personalised to you so we can arrange to pick you up at another airfield or private site with the landowner’s permission where safe.
When we fly
We fly all year round in ‘visual flight’ conditions (meaning weather suitable for your safety and comfort). We can normally confirm suitable weather several days ahead and are happy to book alternative dates if needed.
What’s included?
Prices include VAT, fuel, insurance and landing fees at base and are charged in decimals of an hour flight time. Additional charges may apply for certain landing sites away from base.
- Robinson R44 (up to 3 passengers):
£320 for 30 minutes and £590 for a 1 hour flight - Bell 206 (up to 4 passengers):
£440 for 30 minutes and £850 for a 1 hour flight
