Do you dream of pilot a helicopter yourself? With a helicopter trial lesson At 123Helicopter Flights, you step in as a pilot-for-a-day. Learn the basics, take the controls and have an experience you will never forget: educational, exciting and secretly addictive.
During a helicopter trial lesson You will first get a short briefing on the ground (safety & operation) and then go take to the air yourself with an instructor. Depending on your package, you will fly for about 20-60 minutes and - if conditions allow - you may self-steering: hovering, turning and heading. No experience required. You bring the curiosity, we the helicopter. 😉
Count on approx. 1 to 1.5 hours in total (briefing + flight time). Choose your package:
Good to know: the briefing goes not off your flight time. If you book 30 minutes, then you will actually be in the heli for 30 minutes.
At 123Helikoptervluchten you can take trial lessons at various places in the Netherlands. Think about Lelystad, Hilversum or Harskamp.
From Veluwe forests to the Gooi and Flevopolder: each area has its own panorama. (And yes, with a bit of luck you'll fly over your own house!)
In short: not a sightseeing flight where you just watch, but experience it yourself what it is like to fly a helicopter.
Price depends on location, helicopter type and flight time. As an indication:
Flying longer = doing more yourself. Feel free to choose 45 or 60 minutes if you want to grab extra flying minutes.
No licence or experience required. Normal health is sufficient. Count on a guideline weight limit of 120 kg per person (because of balance) and for self-steering you should be old enough to follow instructions (±10+). Younger kids can sometimes in the back along (depending on type of helicopter). Any questions? We are happy to think along with you.
Cosy! Family or friends can on the ground watch along. Do you opt for a Robinson R44, then even 2 passengers take to the air. Taking photos and video is allowed (tip: put your phone on aeroplane mode).

✨ Book your helicopter trial lesson
No, you don't need any experience or certification. The trial lesson is specially designed for beginners. You will first get a clear explanation on the ground and then fly with a certified instructor, who can always intervene where necessary.
Yes! Certain helicopters, such as the Robinson R44, allow a maximum of two passengers to fly along in the back. In smaller helicopters (such as the S300 or Cabri G2), there is no room for this, but friends and family can always watch from the ground.
Safety always comes first. If the weather is too bad to fly safely (e.g. high winds or rain), the trial lesson will be moved to a new date free of charge. So you always take to the skies in good weather.
