Helicopters
Can you hire a helicopter like you can a limo?
I know you will be restricted on numbers and how long you can go around for but just wondered if you can hire one.

Re: Helicopters
Im guessing you need to be a fully trained pilot, need a good insurance, and need a lot cash....... but it is probably possible to hire one somewhere.
This place might help...

Re: Helicopters
Yeah its really exspensive which is annoying as it would probably be quite fun.
Have you looked into other possibilities, eg. hot air baloon ?

Re: Helicopters
We would prefer a helicopter as you can use them at night, hot air balloon not really my cup of tea.

Spaeking of helicopters, I've always liked the black humour that calls the big nut that holds the rotor blades on the Jesus nut.
