EBG Helicopters

EBG Helicopters is based at Redhill Aerodrome in Surrey. The business began as EBG (Helicopters) Ltd, a helicopter charter and training company trading since 1999. In 2010 it added an engineering arm, EBG Helicopters (Sales and Maintenance) Ltd.

Sightseeing flights are the best known service. Tours fly through central London and past famous landmarks, and the Robinson R44 fleet also flies over England's countryside. The company lists tours of London, the Thames and Medway Estuary, the South Coast, and Portsmouth with the Isle of Wight.

Charter flights are arranged for small groups of up to three passengers. Options include a London and Stonehenge charter, a private flight to a chosen restaurant or hotel, and a door off photography flight from Redhill. Bespoke charters can be planned around the client's route and timing.

The training fleet includes two Robinson R22 Beta 2 helicopters and two Guimbal Cabri G2 helicopters, alongside the R44s. Students can take a trial lesson, a Discovery Day with classroom time, or a longer introduction course over two days. Private pilot training PPL(H) is also offered, along with self fly hire.

The engineering arm provides helicopter servicing and maintenance, and it also handles sales. The company says its maintenance experts look after every aircraft it maintains, with a focus on keeping them in good condition.

Flights are sold as vouchers that are valid for nine months and can be transferred. Flights operate from Redhill Aerodrome seven days a week, subject to availability. The company reports a TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice award for 2024, based on 284 reviews.
