"I got my son & partner this flight for Christmas and they both loved it! Seeing the city from so high up my son was amazed and he loved spotting a bunnings! The pilot showed them so much and they both enjoyed the experience. Highly recommended."

Travis Leggett

"Rotor One made every minute special for my son (who was flying as "co-pilot" for his 6th birthday), explaining how helicopters fly, what we were seeing on the ground and letting him turn the helicopter off. The video of our flight was the cherry at the top, a memory to share with family overseas and to cherish forever.

Sheila Bocian

"It was the best helicopter experience for our family. We could see stunning views of Melbourne city and beaches. Our daughter enjoyed being the co-pilot with Ed who was our pilot. It was our first time and we had such a great experience for my family. Rotor One made it so memorable."

Feed your child's curiosity for planes and helicopters.

On our family-friendly flights your child flies in the front seat as co-pilot! Their window seats have unobstructed views and we enlist their help to spot popular landmarks as they fly over Melbourne.

Our pilots pay special attention to kids from the moment they arrive. We'll sit them in the pilot seat on the ground to demonstrate the physics behind how helicopters fly and give them the opportunity to ask as many questions as they want.

Your kids won't realise they're learning about physics, aerodynamics and aviation and they'll simply be immersed and engaged with every part of their helicopter experience.

An unforgettable 'first' with your child.

Do you remember the time your kids took their first step or spoke their first words? Create another unforgettable 'first' and accompany them as they fly in a helicopter for the first time.

Imagine the look on their face the moment the helicopter lifts up into a hover for the first time. Watch them light up as the helicopter takes off and they gaze down on Melbourne from above.

They'll be besides themselves with birds-eye views of their favourite landmarks like Melbourne Star, Luna Park and the MCG, and we can capture the entire flight on video for you to relive after your flight.
