Full description
Want to experience an adventure that few can relate to?
With this helicopter flight in Rome you not only enjoy the most spectacular view of the Eternal City, but also have the chance to take the controls and experience the thrill of piloting.
A professional pilot will be at your side to guide you through vertical take-off, manoeuvres at altitude and cabin secrets. You let the adrenaline do the rest: you will not only fly, you will be a pilot for a day.
What we will do
The appointment is in Rome, where you will meet the professional pilot who will accompany you on this adventure. It starts with a theoretical briefing: a few essential tips to prepare you for the most electrifying experience there is, that of putting yourself at the controls.
Then you take off! You will climb aboard a Robinson R22, a helicopter with dual controls that will let you experience first-hand manoeuvres such as vertical take-off, turns, and even landing.
Always accompanied by your instructor, you will be able to focus only on the adrenaline and the pleasure of feeling the aircraft respond to your movements, in total safety. For regulatory reasons, you cannot fly over the town centre, but you will still enjoy a privileged perspective.
The activity has a total duration of about 1 hour, including 30 minutes of actual flight time on the airfields inside and outside the airport circuits.
