Why Everyone Should Try A Helicopter Ride At Least Once In Their Life

When it comes to modes of transport that most people have tried out you will hear common options like cars, trains, busses, planes, and even minor variations like motorcycles and mopeds. What you often won't hear is a helicopter, which is a shame because it truly is a unique experience that most people simply never try out for themselves. If you are looking for a fun new experience and haven't ever had the opportunity to get into a helicopter yet, then here are a few reasons why you should try out a helicopter charter for yourself at least once in your lifetime.

Totally Unique Takeoff

If you have ever been on a plane then you know roughly what to expect when taking off from the ground. That rushed feeling as you are pressed back into your seat as the plane uses all of its force to lift off. Helicopters are completely different, as it is a completely vertical takeoff. Instead of feeling pushed back to your seat as you would in a speeding car, you feel the ground beneath you being pushed away, almost like two polar opposite magnets when you try to put them close together. There is no other feeling like it and it is quite fun!

Experience Cityscapes More Closely

One thing that every helicopter charter has over their plane brothers is the ability to really see a cityscape up close. For obvious reasons a plane cannot fly around a city at close quarters because it goes too fast and cannot be maneuvered that easily. A helicopter, on the other hand, can be very easily moved through cities so you get a view of your favorite landmarks that you would never have seen before. From a practical standpoint, helicopters are also often used as a quick method of transport in major cities where traffic on the roads can take hours.

See The Country

Another reason why a helicopter charter is such a fun option for those who love nature is that you can be transported very quickly from urban landscapes to rural pastures and nature reserves. Helicopters can be quick when they need to be, and even on a one-hour charter, you can see a lot of pristine wilderness, whether that is of the coast or more inland. There are helicopter charters that will show you just about every inch of America, so it is up to you to pick what you want to see and where you want to go.
