Benefits of Helicopters.

Helicopter charter offers a multitude of benefits that make it an attractive option for those seeking efficient and luxurious transportation. The speed at which helicopters can travel is unparalleled, allowing passengers to reach their destination in a fraction of the time compared to other modes of transport.

Not only does helicopter charter offer speed, but it also provides ease and convenience. Helicopters have the ability to land in areas that are not accessible by traditional aircraft or other means of transportation, making them a versatile choice for reaching remote locations or crowded urban areas.

In addition to saving time and providing easy access, helicopters provide unparalleled comfort during the journey. Passengers can enjoy a smooth and tranquil ride, free from the turbulence often experienced on aeroplanes or trains. The spacious interiors of helicopters allow for ample legroom and comfortable seating arrangements, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable travel experience.

Privacy is another significant advantage offered by helicopter charter. Unlike commercial flights where passengers are surrounded by strangers, helicopter charters provide an intimate setting where individuals or groups can enjoy their journey in complete seclusion. This level of privacy is particularly appealing for high-profile individuals or those who value discretion.

Lastly, helicopter charters exude luxury and sophistication. From plush interiors to personalized services, every aspect of the experience is tailored to provide an opulent travel experience. Whether it’s for business purposes or leisurely escapes, helicopter charters elevate travel to new heights.

In conclusion, the benefits of helicopter charter are clear: speed, ease of access, comfort, privacy, and luxury all combine to create an exceptional mode of transport that caters to discerning individuals seeking efficiency without compromising on style and comfort.

Helicopter transfers between UK cities like London and Manchester save a significant amount of time. This is especially true considering that airports are often located further away from cities, such as in the case of London.

Helicopter Safety

Our helicopter charter service prioritizes your safety and strictly follows the rules of helicopter operation within the UK. Weather conditions can sometimes impact our operations. Our pilots have strict parameters to adhere to, ensuring that your flight is both safe and comfortable.

The largest factor when operating a helicopter flight is both forward and vertical visibility. In general terms, we look for a could base of plus 500 feet above sea level and in built-up areas of plus 1000 feet with forwarding viability of 1 kilometre or more.

Single-engine helicopters are more susceptible to weather conditions compared to twin-engine helicopters. This is because twin-engine helicopters are equipped with a variety of all-weather instruments that enable them to fly in adverse weather conditions using instrumentation.

Helicopter Cabin

Single and twin-engine helicopters

A twin-engine helicopter generally offers a greater range and has the ability to carry a larger payload compared to a single-engine helicopter. Furthermore, it is capable of landing in smaller spaces, such as the London Battersea Heliport.

Another significant advantage of twin-engine helicopters is their ability to fly in adverse weather conditions. This is made possible by additional instrumentation specifically designed to handle such conditions.

In the summer months, a single-engine has more days where it is able to fly and is ideal with light payloads over a relatively short run of up to an hour.

Helicopter Charter with Charter-a

Night Rated Helicopter charter

During the autumn, winter, and early spring months, the days become shorter. This means that if you regularly use helicopters, you will need to ensure that you have a helicopter that is capable and legally approved for night flights.

Simply put, in order to effectively complete night flights within the UK in a helicopter, you must be flying in a twin-engine, night-rated helicopter with a pilot who is also night-rated.

Despite their higher price tag and larger size, these helicopters possess remarkable abilities to navigate through the unpredictable weather conditions of the UK. Investing in such helicopters ensures that you can operate with confidence, even during challenging seasons.
