Airbus H125 Trial flight

Fly a helicopter yourself!

During an introductory flight, you’ll take the controls as the pilot—of course, accompanied by and under the supervision of an experienced flight instructor. The flight instructor will gradually give you more control over the helicopter. You can try out various flight maneuvers, such as landings and hovering, on your own. Coordinating all the controls is a major challenge. Can you keep the helicopter hovering in place? Give it a try—an introductory flight is an intense and unforgettable experience.

Take on the challenge!

Note: A maximum of 2 accompanying guests may fly along.

Airbus H125

The "A-Star" family was developed in the 1970s by the French manufacturer Aerospatiale (later Eurocopter, now Airbus Helicopters) and is still very popular today.

The six- to seven-seats helicopter with a Turbomeca turbine engine is the most widely used aircraft in the Swiss helicopter industry. Its range of applications covers almost all areas of helicopter flying. We use the H125  for passenger transportation as well as for sling load operations. If the intention is to be employed by a helicopter company, a rating on the Airbus H125 is essential.

Typical area of use

  • Ideally suited for all types of sightseeing flights
  • Aerial work, such as sling load operations and flights at high altitudes
  • Heliskiing and taxi flights
  • Pilot training

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you fly all year round, even in winter?

Yes, we operate all year round. Every season has its own special charm. You can choose your favorite season for the flight.

Under what conditions do group flights take place?

The following conditions must be met for the group flights (from Bern-Belp on Sundays) to take place:

  • all seats in the helicopter are occupied and paid for
  • the meteorological conditions are right

If not all helicopter seats are occupied, the flight will be postponed to a subsequent weekend (Saturday or Sunday) of your choice.

How far in advance do I have to book a helicopter flight?

We recommend booking one to two weeks in advance. Reservations can of course also be made at shorter notice. With shorter lead times, it is possible that our helicopters are already occupied. Weekends are particularly busy.

How do I book a helicopter flight?

Website: on the respective page of our sightseeing flights you can choose whether you would like to order a voucher or book an appointment directly.
If you already have a voucher for a single seat, click on"Free seats" via the helicopter symbol at the top left. There you will find the available seats on our sightseeing flights on Sundays (from Bern-Belp).

Telephone: You are welcome to call us on 031 819 60 30. Our office is open seven days a week. We will be happy to advise you.

By e-mail: Please send us an e-mail with your reservation request to info@mountainflyers.ch.

What must be observed after landing?

After landing, the pilot stops the helicopter's engine and lets the rotor spin out. Please wait strapped into the helicopter until the pilot gets out and opens the doors for you or instructs you to open the doors yourself. Your pilot will then accompany you back to our office.
