| | "Principles of Flight" - Chopper Adventures
South Africa's Premier Team Builders & Corporate Motivators |  |  | Helicopter Adventures | |  | |
| Could you ever imagine being handed the controls of a hovering helicopter! | |
| Team mates on board the flight will have their levels of trust in your ability tested to the limit. | | This exciting event utilises high levels of safety standards whilst exposing delegates to a very real and unexpected flying experience in a variety of helicopters selected to match your team's event and group numbers. | | The Chopper Adventure is a teambuilding simulation which utilises the experiential environment of helicopter for transport of delegates to various locations in order to solve a crisis situation. | "Living itself is a risky business. If we spent half as much time learning how to take risks as we spend avoiding them, we wouldn't have nearly so much to fear in life."
E. Paul Torrance | | Initially, all delegates undergo a practical training session focusing on the Principles of Flight of a Robinson R44 or R22 helicopter. | | From training, delegates could be subjected to computer simulation of helicopter flight. | |  | |
| However, the comfort zones are stretched when the delegates are asked to come outside and the real helicopters fly in and land at the conference venue. | "It is possible to fly without motors, but not without knowledge and skill."

| Even more surprises await when everyone realises that a mere helicopter flip is NOT all the team has in store. | | At this point, the briefing begins... | | The pre-flight inspection normally serves to calm the new airmen's nerves, but the swirling rotors also serve to get the adrenaline flowing as the deafening noise makes the situation all the more real. | | Listen up team! Here's the brief:..... | | A downed pilot has been lost behind enemy lines and has to be urgently airlifted to a nearby insurgent unit with medics. | |  | |
| In order to avoid being caught by a fast approaching larger enemy task force, certain other resources have to be systematically airlifted to your men. | | Their objective is to build a suitable raft from the equipment you have flown in and get across the border lake to safety. | | Team members have to rotate the tasks of navigation, map reading, communications and even flying the choppers themselves. | |
| This is an unforgettable activity for even the most hardened of teams. | | The realistic elements of technical training, powerful machinery and working under blasting winds from the rotors are even more effective when there is a serious task at hand. | | The imminent danger is enhanced when delegates may be transported on the skids of a flying helicopter in order to facilitate a speedy disembarkment when time is running out | | Professionally facilitated by the country's most experienced helicopter instructors, utilising Helicopters maintained to the highest standards. | |  | |
| This really is an event for the team that's done it all! | | Once again Movers and Shakers are a number of different options for the Chopper Adventure. | | A scaled-down, but nevertheless unforgettable version of this event involves the introductory Flight School training, facilitated Pre-flight checks and opportunities for delegates to control the helicopter in flight under supervised guidance. | | All delegates are awarded a "Movers & Shakers - Excellence on the Fly " Certificate. | "Imagination is the highest kite that one can fly."
