Experience the excitement of piloting a helicopter with personalized, one-on-one instruction. Whether it’s your first time in the air or you’re training toward a private pilot certificate, this is your opportunity to take the controls and fly over the breathtaking Southern California landscape. In order to provide you with an authentic helicopter pilot experience, we have combined a mini simulation course with a hands-on helicopter flight.

Q&A

Q: What if the weather is bad on the day of the flight? Can we reschedule?

A: Yes, if the weather is particularly bad, you can definitely reschedule. Anthelion Helicopters is pretty flexible about that, and they want to make sure you have a great experience. Just give them a call a day or two in advance if you’re concerned, and they’ll help you find a new date that works. Also, check their cancellation policy on their website for peace of mind!

Q: Is there an age limit for the flight lesson? Can kids participate?

A: Yes, there is an age requirement for the flight lesson; participants need to be at least 12 years old. However, younger kids can still join if they're accompanied by an adult, but they won’t be flying. It's a great idea for a fun family gift, just make sure they have some interest in aviation!

Q: What should I wear for the helicopter flight? Any specific gear needed?

A: You don’t need any special gear, but I recommend wearing comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes. It can get a little windy up there, so a light jacket might be helpful. Anthelion will provide headsets to block out the noise, so just come ready to enjoy the ride!

Thinking about gifting a helicopter flight lesson to my partner!

Hey everyone! I'm considering getting the Flight Lesson in Long Beach for my partner's birthday next month. They’ve always been fascinated by helicopters, and I think this would be an unforgettable experience! I love that it includes simulator training too. Has anyone done this before? Any tips? Does it feel scary or more like a fun ride?

Just booked the helicopter flight lesson!

So I finally pulled the trigger and booked the helicopter lesson in Long Beach! I’m nervous but excited. I couldn’t resist the thought of flying over the Southern California coastline. I heard the views are breathtaking. Anyone have suggestions on what to expect on the day?
