About the experience
Take off on a Shropshire helicopter tour from Welshpool Airport. Fly north along the River Severn to cross the border into England. Once in England the hills give way to the flat Shropshire plain with large stretches of countryside for miles. On a clear day you may be able to see Liverpool, the Pennines to the north and even the Midlands. Then head over to Rodneys Pillar on the way to Shrewsbury via the disused RAF airfield Montford Bridge that trained spitfire pilots in the war. With Shrewsbury under foot you can see the beautiful buildings in the town, being given a birds eye view of the Shuts and Passages weaving across the town's centre. Going west flying past the Shropshire hills you will see the stunning Welsh countryside. You will know you're back in Wales with the border being marked with the longest archeological monument in Britain, Offa’s Dyke. When returning to Welshpool catch a glimpse of Powis Castle before your feet are back on the ground.
