About the experience

It's easy to be fascinated by choppers as you get lost in watching their blades slice through the skies overhead on a summer’s day. Despite these nifty helicopters making flying look very easy, they can be tricky to master. However, if you’ve ever wanted to learn how to fly one, you’re in the right place. The brilliantly located Liverpool John Lennon Airport offers aviation lovers the chance to sit in the cockpit and learn to fly a helicopter alongside an expert instructor. Not only does this Airport boast a convenient location easily reachable from Manchester, Warrington and Chester, but a long history of teaching people how to fly as lessons started on this site in 1986. All those years later, and this venue is still helping people train towards their pilot licence or simply having a go at mastering a new skill. In this session, depending on your prior experience, your instructor will have you flying sideways, backwards, mastering spot turns and hoovering. As you soar over Liverpool, you’ll also be treated to the incredible cityscape views from the air as you catch the Welsh mountains in the distance. If you’re keen to learn how to fly but are feeling a bit nervous, why not invite someone along to join you and make a day of it in Liverpool afterwards? If you fancy stretching your adventurous wings and trying something new, don’t miss out on a Flying Lesson from Liverpool Airport.
