The Experience

Discover what it’s like to be part of the jet set lifestyle and take controls of a helicopter with this awesome helicopter flight simulator experience!

A simulator gives you the chance to fully immerse yourself in the feeling of actually flying a helicopter as you soar through the skies.

The experience will start with a welcome, sign in, introduction and health & safety briefing. Your instructor will escort you to the simulator and ensure you are seated safely for your experience.

Inside the simulator you will find the control panel of the Agusta Bell 109 model which also comes with leather seats and a plush interior! You’ll get a 220 degree view of the 3D scenery on display thanks to the surround screen which gives you the most realistic cockpit view imaginable.

After a brief discussion on how the helicopter flies, the flight will begin at Shoreham where you will then follow the Instructor to take off to the hovering pads where you will begin to gain experience of the controls and gain experience to hover.

Once a degree of understanding has been established, you will then complete a flight from Shoreham to Goodwood (where the festival of speed is held). Once there you will do a brief flight up and down the runway. You will then go from there to the Goodwood Horse Racetrack and do a further landing on the helipad. From there you will fly back to Goodwood and we will then attempt to chase the racing cars around the track. Finally landing back at Goodwood where the helicopter will be shut down.

This will be an experience talked about for years to come!
