Aircraft Fleet
Helicopter fleet
We’re well-known for helicopters in Yorkshire, whether it’s for hire or for a flying experience.
Our helicopter fleet has something for everyone, from a simple cost effective Robinson R44 to the luxury 5 seater Bell 505 Jet Ranger.
Both are available from the base at Sherburn Airfield.
