Tours

  • Trying to think of the perfect way to propose? We have several ideas that will blow her mind and give the two of you a story to tell the grandkids one day. When you set up your flight, we will reveal our trade secret helicopter proposal ideas, but we will set the stage by playing your selection of love songs during the flight, champagne and strawberries, and so much more! Contact us and we will go to work to create the perfect memory for the two of you.
  • Clearlake, Kemah, and NASA tour- Enjoy a tour of Kemah boardwalk, fly over the bay, see NASA and Clearlake from a whole new perspective. We can even fly over your home or business to give you that perfect photo op. It will be a fun and enjoyable experience for you and a loved one, or for the whole family
  • Houston Tour- Fly through downtown, look straight down into Minute Maid park, check out the Galleria and Memorial from the sky... the list goes on and on. There is nothing like flying through the middle of the city, especially on a sunset flight!
  • Galveston- There is nothing more beautiful than watching the sunset in Galveston from the view of a helicopter! This is perfect for a romantic night out, or simply to experience such a sight. Not only do you get to see the beaches and the ocean from the sky, but you will get the truly infinite sense of the ocean when you see it from the eye of the helicopter.
  • Our pilots are seasoned and high time professional helicopter pilots with the experience and knowledge to make your experience not only memorable and pleasurable, but most importantly, safe and comfortable.
 

Located at Ellington Airport just south of Houston and east of I-45 at 11210 Blume Avenue, we provide the most professional and cost effective helicopter training program in Houston.  If you have always dreamed of a career as a pilot — perhaps flying medical transport as an EMS pilot, television news or traffic, offshore oil operations, heavy-lifting long-lines operations, tour flights, or perhaps executive flights — we can provide the training to allow you to realize those dreams.  We will create a training schedule tailored to your needs in order to help you obtain your certificates and ratings in the minimum amount of time and in the most cost effective manner possible.

The courses we offer include the following:

  • Private pilot Certificate
  • Commercial pilot Certificate
  • Certified flight instructor (CFI)
  • Instrument certification
  • Certified Instrument flight instructor (CFII)
  • Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certification

You will fly in the best training helicopters — the Robinson R-22 Beta II (two seater) and a brand new R-44 Raven II (four seater), fully equipped for instrument training, including a pilot side-mounted Garmin 530 GPS with traffic information (which greatly enhances safety and situational awareness), radar altimeter, and air conditioning.  Our fleet is maintained by a Robinson service center located at the Airport.  It is well known in the industry that if you train in a Robinson, you will develop the techniques to be able to fly any helicopter.

Our office is located at Volo Aviation right next to the facilities of both NASA and the Coast Guard at Ellington Airport.  The luxurious facilities of Volo include spacious conference rooms, showers and even a sauna.  They provide a very comfortable place to train and work.
