Our standard Trial Lesson is around 25-30 Minutes depending on Air Traffic control.
You will get full control of the cyclic in the helicopter with a professional experienced friendly pilot by your side. A great birthday experience and perfect way to start your helicopter licence.
The trial lesson is a no obligation flight that includes a 10 minute instructional briefing followed by a 30 minute flight where you get to take over the controls.
Feel the thrill of your first time flying a helicopter, then sit back and enjoy the ride as your instructor demonstrates some of the techniques you will learn later in your training. If you’re feeling up to it, the instructor will even demonstrate a simulated engine failure on the way back into Archerfield. The perfect way to see if flying is for you.

5 months agoDave is a wonderful pilot who made us and our children feel at ease immediately. It was clear that his focus was on us all having an enjoyable flight. Dave's informative commentary throughout the flight was appreciated, and we were lucky that the weather was on our side so that we could fly through the city. The doors off was really cool too! I highly recommend this activity for anyone visiting, or living in, Brisbane. Great work V2!

3 months agoWe had an absolute blast on our flight! Our pilot Tim was great too- I had been nervous about going up in a helicopter for the first time, but quickly felt safe. I'd recommend that everyone go and cross this off their bucket list at some point!

5 months agoThis was an unforgettable anniversary adventure! The helicopter ride was exhilarating, offering breathtaking views of the landscape. The pilot, Tyrell, was knowledgeable, and engaging, providing fascinating insights throughout the journey. Our stop at the Sirromet Winery for lunch and a wine tasting was a culinary delight. The staff were attentive and welcoming and the meal was delicious. Matt, the chauffeur at the winery was fun and nice. I highly recommend getting out of the norm and going on an adventure with your loved ones! 💕✨🌻
