1. How many people can a helicopter hold? How is the seating arranged?
Can I sit up front?

Air Dynasty’s fleet of Ecureuil AS 350 helicopters can accommodate five passengers plus the pilot. The weight & balance of the helicopter requires proper seating arrangement. This system is used to equally distribute the weight, ensuring the pilot a level for safe flying platform. Both fore/aft and lateral balance are considered along with overall total weight of the helicopter.

There is one seat to the left of the pilot and four seats directly behind. Our helicopters are made for touring, so each seat provides an excellent view for all passengers. Special requests for certain seats will be granted if allowed by our weight and balance system.

Safety is Air Dynasty’s first concern.

2. Do you have a set schedule? What’s the best time to fly?

No, we do not have a set schedule. Tours are established solely upon your request fo a tour area. We will fly tours anytime, however we recommend morning time to be the best subject to weather and other operational conditions. We suggest you book (reserve) your flight in advance to ensure availability. All of our tours offer an excellent view, and as said earlier, morning flight time should be wonderful.

3. What’s the best tour?

Each of Air Dynasty’s tours highlights particular areas of interest. Within these areas are many points of interest. We find our guests enjoy each of our offered tours. Repeat flyers generally choose an alternate tour, however sometimes passengers take the same tour over and over again. Please select the tour that meets your flight-seeing desires.

4. Can we bring a camera? Best camera lens?

Cameras are permitted on board and recommended. We have found through guest comments that a 35mm with ASA 400 or higher with a wide-angle lens works good. Our tours offer some of the most unique photo-taking opportunities anywhere on the planet.

5. Does the wind affect the helicopter?

Helicopters unlike planes have no fixed wings. The main rotors act as a gyro and stabilize the helicopter in gusty conditions. If wind and gust are such that it will cause an uncomfortable flight, tours will be cancelled.

Your safety and comfort are our highest concern.

6. What should I wear? Why do you recommend dark clothes?
Will I be comfortable?

Clothing should be comfortable and casual. Dark shirts or tops are recommended for photo taking. Bright colored clothing may put a reflective glare on the helicopter Plexiglas windows which may refract in your photos. Dark clothing helps to eliminate the reflection.

7. Do people get sick? Should I take Dramamime?

Although most of our guests enjoy our flights with no discomfort at all, some guests are prone to motion sickness. If this applies to you, we would recommend taking Dramamine or a similar product.

As with all medicines, consult with your doctor before use. All of our flights are sightseeing tours and our pilots take pride in providing the smoothest, safest, and most enjoyable tours available.

Helicopters have “Sickness Bags" on board if needed.
