Fine Gift Ideas

Boys do love their toys!  This radio controlled Bladerunner is delivered ready to fly, with no complex building or setting up making it an ideal Christmas gift. 

When you’ve hovered, soared, dived and completed your reconnaissance mission, you’ll want to refuel. And if you do crash, the Bladerunner RC helicopter’s tough body will usually enable it to recover from potentially lethal crashes in minutes compared to the more traditional RC helicopters that often fall at the first hurdle, destroying hours of your painstaking labour.

Never got to be a pilot?  Well, here’s your chance to fly with a fighter pilot and experience the thrill of loops and barrel rolls in a magnificent Bulldog.  Each flight experience is designer around your requirements, so it can be as wild or tame as you wish (safety permitting, of course)!

The minimum age requirements for this experience is 12 years, but weight is limited to 17 stone and height up to 6′ 5″.

A gift voucher valid for 12 months is issued on purchase of this experience, and packages are available for single experiences or for two persons.  Availability is on selected dates throughout the year.

The Helicopter Thrill for Two comes close to touching the magic of vertical flight. From the moment you lift into the air to the second the helicopter settles gracefully back on the ground it is an unforgettable experience. Take your seats as the pilot climbs gracefully to over 1,000 feet and accelerates to over 120 miles an hour. You will interact with the pilot via the headset (don’t forget to listen out for air traffic on the radio!), swooping over the landscape and then settling gently back on the ground.

The Flight Sim Trial Experience is as close as you can get to flying a twin engine without years of training. Prepare for take off, get air traffic control clearance and open up the throttle all the way! An instructor is in the co pilot’s seat to ensure that you can find your way around the mass of controls and bring the plane safely into land at the end of your session.
