But we are not in despair- our inquiring minds invented planes and submarines, so its not a problem to have a bird's-eye view. Isn`t it  wonderful to have a helicopter  flight, for example, exploring a new country. Agree, that all the objects seen turn to be different from the height, and many of them can be fully appreciated only from a distance.  It especially concerns megacities, where lack of space often complicates sightseeing.  And New York, you know, is one of them.
That is why Liberty Helicopters company was established over twenty years ago.
 Now it is the largest Helicopter Sightseeing and Charter Service in the Northeast. Practically, Liberty Helicopters is the only authorized Helicopter Sightseeing Company in New York City. The highest level of safety is approved by lots of awards, like the Five Star Diamond Award for 1996, 1997, and 1998 and annual Safety Award from the Helicopter Association International. Rather an impressive record, confirming the safety of Liberty Helicopters flights being on the highest level. That is in part due to the facts that the staff is completely skilled experts and that the reliability of the equipment. All aircraft and flight crews are certified and inspected to meet the demanding standards of the Federal Aviation Administration, so you must be sure in them.
