Junior Aviator Program

Do your kids dream of one day becoming a pilot? Do they always nag you for a flight in a helicopter? Our Junior Aviator Program is designed for kids who have a passion for helicopters and want to learn more. We induct them on the day as a temporary aviator. We show them the preparation to get an aircraft ready, the process to get it flying and then most importantly, THEY COME FLYING WITH US.

We usually run these programs in conjunction with a joyflight day. The Junior Aviator will spend plenty of time in the helicopter and learning what we do every day. We supply them with lunch, a hat and a T shirt.

Spots for this great program are limited, so give us a call to book in for the experience of a lifetime.

Call for price and booking.

Adventure River Run Scenic

Adventure River Run approx. 45 minutes

THIS FLIGHT IS NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED! River Runs are pretty much the ultimate experience when it comes to low helicopter flights and as we have the Brisbane River right at our doorstep, it seems an awful shame not to make use of it. Pterodactyl Helicopters take off out of Archerfield Airport, head west and pick up the river. This is where the fun starts! From here we track the tight turns and bends as low as you can legally go in a helicopter. For the added rush, take the doors off.
