“So the flight was a 100% worth it! Super cool! But the video is a little bit disappointing… Because I was thinking I‘ll get a video from outside the helikopter (as in the pictures they show) but I just saw myself sitting in there for an hour… So don‘t buy the video before you see it. But everything else was PERFECT! I think it‘s a must do!”
