About the experience
As soon as you arrive at Brighton City Airport in Sussex you’ll be blown away by the history here on site. This airfield dates back to the 1930s and boasts a stunning art deco style terminal building which is actually grade II listed.

Helicopters are a right of passage for anyone who is passionate about flying, and if you haven’t been on one already, this is your sign. Before taking to the skies you’ll be walked through the pre flight briefing and your pilot will explain to you the principles of helicopter flying. Once your seated and airborne, your pilot will take you around some of the most picturesque parts of the South Downs National Park, as well as encourage you to have a go on the controls yourself. There’s nothing quite like flying a helicopter yourself, as you get used to the blades chopping through the air and the stunning views out of the cockpit. As well as being the perfect flying experience, this site also caters to those wishing to make a day of it with family and friends as it has excellent facilities including a visitors centre and on side viewing area and restaurant.
