Discovery & Photo Flights

Our Rates

At Monadnock Choppers, we are dedicated to making aviation as accessible as possible by offering competitive rates*. Our Discovery and Photography Flights are tailored for first-time flyers, providing an exciting way to experience the thrill of flying. Please note that our airplane rental rates are for the aircraft only; Airplane flight training students will pay the additional hourly instruction fee unless they are soloing. As always, we are happy to answer any questions and we look forward to flying with you!

*At this time, we are adding a fuel surcharge to the hourly aircraft rate due to the rising cost of fuel. We hope to be able to remove this in the future.
