In the mid 1980`s there was a shuttle service between Battersea and LHR operated by Virgin Helicopters with an AS 355 Twin Squirrel. It never really caught on for a number of reasons, one being that serious baggage had to go by road. The journey from Battersea to LHR was taking on average about 45 minutes and was fairly expensive so it petered out after a short while. The McAlpine facility at Hayes was quite convenient and only a short drive to any of the terminals, sadly no longer operative.
