I love flying and got to ride in one in Kauai – one of the most beautiful places on earth. My dream is to retire in Kauai and do the helicopter tours!

How I did it: My poems are always about flying and helicopters. So when i had my 24th birthday, my boyfriend gave me a wonderful experience that i experienced not only in my poems but in real life too! Well, it was just amazing having to chance to take the controls and the best part- being able to fly it! (oh well, with a pilot haha, but i already had flying lessons so i was a bit hard headed) Read how I did it…

Flazzle wishes there was something higher than 10 on the morale-o-meter! :)
I’ve been skydiving and flown a plane (AWESOME!!!) but I’ve never even been in a helicopter. My dad bought his wife a helicopter flying lesson once and it looked amazing. I can’t wait to make this dream a reality.

Helicopters are great aren’t they?
You can land anywhere, hide behind buildings and surprise your friends, carry the shopping in the back.
I want one, but I need a few million pounds first.
I went in one once and it was awesome! imagine if that was your job – flying people over antartica/grand canyon/in an air ambulance.
what’s the cheapest way of doing this in the UK? Even if it’s only a 30 minute lesson or something.
I want to fly a helicopter one day. I think it would be amazing to fly out durring a hurricane and rescue people in the ocean. The air just makes me feel so free because it is one of the last places people havent developed. You cant tame the air. You can catch it and use it to your advantage, but never tame it.
