I'm looking to get a wedding present for some friends who live in Annapolis. I'd like to get them a helicopter trip for four people. My preference is for a charter rather than a standard tour. Who has good machines (EC120/130/B206L) and who are you happy to recommend in the area ?

Just bumping this up to see if any of the US folk want to chip in.

You could try Helicopter High at Martin State Airport (quite close to Anapolis). Don't know if they still exist but I did some hour building there some time ago (and remember flying over Anapolis). h-r

Rather pricy (esp. for an R44), but there's one option here (http://www.bootcamphelicopters.com/content/helicopter_tours.php).

I would not recommend 'boot camp helicopters'. It is a one-man operation, who can only take one passenger, and the individual has a rather 'shaky' history.
I would go for
Advanced Helicopter Concepts (http://www.advancedhelicopter.com/site/)
(i have no connection with them)

I flew with Advanced several years ago and would thoroughly recommend them. They only had robbos though so no chance for 4+1 but no harm in giving them a call as they might have a 120 or 206 available.
Cheers,
John

Thanks everyone. I was beginning to think there was an exclusion zone around there.

AHC does have a 206 available. PM me if you want me to point you to the people to talk to.
