World Helicopter Day!

Posted by

We are looking forward to welcoming locals in to our hangar and giving them the chance to look over a range of helicopters. Hopefully we’ll see you there too!

Along with the helicopters there will be Simulator rides, a preflight contest and a pinch hitter seminar, food and beverages will be available and we will be holding several presentations on how helicopters fly and the types of careers that are available in the helicopter industry.

A limited number of local area joyflights will be available on the day for those that want to take to the air.

The festivities will begin at 10am and we will close up at 1pm.

Entry is free and families and children are most welcome.

If you plan to fly in (please do!) just let us know so we can have the ramp ready for you!
