Trial Helicopter Flight | Fly a Helicopter in Flanders | Heli Business Wevelgem
Take the controls yourself

Trial Flights

Have you always dreamed of flying a helicopter yourself? Includes a 30-minute ground briefing and a hands-on section where you take the controls. Departing from Wevelgem, for 1 or 2 persons — from € 435 incl. VAT.

Step by step

How does a trial flight work?

From ground briefing to flying above Flanders yourself.

During a trial flight, dual controls are fitted in the aircraft. The first half hour you stay on the ground next to the helicopter. You get to know the aircraft, receive an explanation of the controls and instruments, and together with the instructor you carry out the preflight check and startup procedure.

Then comes the practical part: you fly! Through a series of exercises you learn to handle the helicopter. For the 60-minute flight we split this into 30 minutes of hands-on flying and 30 minutes of sightseeing — a wonderful way to unwind after the effort! Want to continue learning to fly after this? Contact us for information about our pilot training.
