It was fantastic! Loved every minute of the (way too short) 20 minute joy flight.
We headed mostly over the coast and saw some lovely scenery. J took pics but I haven't seen them yet. If there are some good ones, I put them up later.
I wanna do it again!!

Helicopters are weird. They lean forward when they take off instead of backward like aeroplanes. They're great fun though and I'm jealous, I haven't been flying for ages.
Make sure it's not the last time you do it. It's too much fun. Try a joy flight in a Tiger Moth.
Ok. I didn't read your previous post. In that case, try an aerobatic joyflight in a Yak 52, or maybe even in a Mig 15, I think there's one based down your way. expensive though.
I was a bit surprised about the leaning forward bit. The hovering 'taxi-ing' thing was also something that had never occurred to me.
A joyflight in a Mig would be great - but you're right, very pricy.
i absolutely loved every helicopter ride i was on, even though i was usually throwing up. still totally worth it.
I once flew in a blimp. I'll have to dig up the album and scan some of the pictures in. It was such a neat experience, and your balloon and chopper pics have inspired me to take a closer look.
It's funny sean but I've never been air sick (so far) but put me in a boat and it's a different picture.
carmi, a blimp would be amazing! I'd love to give that a try.
