Helicopter Charter
What type of Helicopter should I charter?
HELICOPTERS
Helicopters can move into and out of difficult to reach places like big-city congestion or remote wilderness locations.
They are perfect for small groups of people that need to travel a short distance in good weather conditions. Today's modern charter helicopters are typically powered by a Turboshaft Engines and fly at speeds up to 175 mph for average ranges of 100-350 miles.
Helicopter charter enables passengers to hover to take photos of a real estate site, carry the injured to area hospitals, land in locations where there are no available airports and generally get in and out of places faster and easier than with fixed-wing aircraft.
THe most common reasons for chartering a helicopter are as follows:
Business
For the busy executive who needs to get in and out of congested areas quickly, a helicopter is the ideal solution. Some business people even use helicopters to puck them up from city areas, as in the baking district of London, to drop them off at a local airport such as Biggin Hill to pick up an awaiting private aircraft.
Pleasure
People sometimes hire a helicopter just for the pleasure of enjoying a flight and see a bird's eye view of their local area or countryside.
