In the course of a 45-minute aerial tour, helicopter pilots grant passengers scenic bird's-eye views of the gothic and modern architecture of downtown Chicago, the expanse of Lake Geneva, the cityscape of Milwaukee, or the verdant fields and small lakes of rural southeast Wisconsin. Passengers perch in the cockpit of a Robinson R-22 helicopter during solo flights, or sit strapped beside an additional passenger in an R-44.

Midwestern Helicopter

Having honed his aviation skills in helicopter cockpits for 45+ years, the head pilot at Midwestern Helicopter leads a team of FAA–certified pilots in performing helicopter tours, charters, and pilot instruction. They steer a fleet of three Robinson R-44s and two R-22s over cityscapes and country vistas with photographers, pollinators, surveyors, or sightseers onboard, continuing a crash- and speeding-ticket-free record begun with the company's inception four years ago. The flight team acquaints new flyers with immediate actual flight experience during introductory flights and helps students to achieve private, commercial, and flight-instructor certification during FAA courses. As authorized merchants of Robinson aircraft, they can also hawk helicopters or perform maintenance on various models inside heated hangars without having to first notify the aircraft's next of kin.

The Groupon Guide to: A Rendezvous with Your Bosom Buddy

A happenstance rendezvous with a beloved bosom buddy can be the spoonful of sugar in an otherwise unseemly world. Here are some best-to-be-heeded tips to making the most out of an encounter with your beloved companions:

  • Make sure to bring plenty of nibbles for both you and your chumly bud’s tummies. Some teatime sandwiches like some Cucumber Babyfingers or Little Ham Lords should do, and why not some salted fudge for after-meal yums?

  • Appreciate nature with your cherished accomplice. Enjoy an après-lunch learnabout through an educational garden or listen to the songs of the whippoorwills. Just try not to cry at their resplendent beauty.

  • Take your prized pal for a ride in your coupe. Adhere to the speed limits to avoid a talking-to and bring a taffeta scarf for you and your sweet compatriot.

  • Play the harp together!

  • It would just be velvet-on-vicars to watch the Sunday football match with your prince of friends, would it not? I think the Chiefs really have a chance this year if Cassel can show up and Jamaal Charles can’t bounce back from his surgery. It’s gonna be a bruiser…

Here’s how to be a big weirdo.
