About Northumbria Helicopters

Northumbria Helicopters is a Newcastle International Airport based helicopter operator offering pilot training, hands on trial lessons and bespoke flights. For learners, the airport setting is a real advantage, giving early exposure to professional radio work and well structured procedures while still keeping the experience welcoming for first timers. For people comparing helicopter schools, Northumbria Helicopters offers a clear route from an introductory trial lesson into licence training, with the school stating that trial lesson time can count towards a private licence if a student decides to continue. Training is conducted in a Robinson R44, a popular four seat training type. The company also sells gift focused trial lessons, city tours over the Newcastle area and bespoke tours for small groups. Beyond training and experiences, Northumbria Helicopters also provides charter services for weddings, special occasions, events plus aerial filming and photography. Fleet information highlights both Robinson R44 helicopters and Bell 206 JetRanger aircraft.
