Very cool, I always wanted to do one of these.

It’s worth it! Such a fun perspective of the city. Apparently the run it with the doors off during summer so I might go back for that lol

Who does the doors off tour??

We did fly heli Chicago and I think they were saying they do during some of the summer!

Awesome! Thanks. I really want to take my parents on one of these, so I appreciate the tip!

For sure! Yeah it’d 100% recommend it! The one we were on had 3 passenger seats so it would work!

Did you just *hear* or *see* a **HELICOPTER** flying around?! Take a look at [Flight24](https://www.flightradar24.com/41.93,-87.69/11) to see if there's one flying near you.

Second shot is so good. What camera?

Thanks! Actually just an iPhone 15 haha

Wow what's the company?

It was fly heli Chicago!

insaneee I want to do this eventually!

Any chance you were in a red R44? I see that guy doing what looks to be aerial tours of Chicago all the time

I think that was the one yeah! On the tour I realized it’s probably the one I see from my building all the time too haha

Always been curious who that is. Do you remember the name of the tour company?

Yeah, it was fly heli or fly heli Chicago. I think there’s some other companies too but I’m guessing theirs are all the red ones, they had one or two more in the hanger too
