A toy helicopter of the type that was designed by Alphonse Pénaud was given to Wilbur and Orville Wright by their father Milton. It made such an impression on the boys that it inspired them to develop their own airplane that would someday carry a person into flight. The Wright brothers have credited him as an important predecessor and attributed part of their success to the contributions of Pénaud. This toy helicopter is not intended to be a replica, but a nod to that inspiration that had an impact on the brothers.



Try it and see if it inspires your young ones resulting with a similar twinkle in their eyes.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Wonderful Experience
​
We did the 20 minute flight with the family. The pilot was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was very neat to see Nags Head and the ocean from the air. We will definitely do it again with a longer flight next time we are in the area.."
