Pre-flight Information

Upon booking, a customer may receive a confirmation up to 72 hours prior to their lesson, please note, this needs to be read and printed out. There are specific instructions to follow on flying days to ensure lessons are going ahead.
Flying Pig Helicopters cannot be responsible for anyone not following such instructions.
Lessons can include start-up, shutdown, taking-off and landing. The lesson flight duration is subject to Air Traffic Control and weather conditions therefore they are approximate in length.
Flying Pig Helicopters reserves the right to postpone any lesson in the event of poor weather, Air Traffic restrictions, circumstances beyond their control or other safety related issue.
When making a booking you will be given an arrival time (this will be different to your actual lesson time) and we respectfully request you arrive on time, if you are 30 minutes late or more we cannot guarantee you will have a lesson as we operate and run extremely tight flying schedules.
A good understanding and ability to speak English is essential to flight safety, therefore we reserve the right to refuse any of the controls if they feel you do not fully understand the instructions given by them and this may terminate your lesson.
Please ensure you haven’t consumed any alcohol for at least 24 hours before your lesson. If we suspect you have, then we reserve the right to refuse you on board the aircraft.
