Visiting NYC

Chris,

My neighbor runs Liberty Helicopters (http://www.libertyhelicopters.com/)
that fly out of the heliport next to the Intrepid air museum. If you only
want a quick look aroung the area from the air, they can help without you
having to leave Manhatten. OTOH, the flight's pretty sort unless you spend
big $$'s.

An alternative, if possible, would be to contact me by phone when you're in
town (demung my e-mail address, send me yours, and I'll send you my phone #)
and if the weather's OK perhaps we can go up in my Archer. I'm always
looking for an excuse to go flying. I like flying the Hudson corridor,
although it's a couple of hours flight by the time I get there from KSMQ and
return.

What part of London are you from? I did my MSc and PhD in Cardiff in the
70's. My children are named Gareth, Gwyneth and Gethyn as a result.

I am flying in from London to spend a long weekend in NYC in February.
I was wondering whether anyone could recommend anywhere where I can get a
plane and instructor to me take up the Hudson and do the sights.

I don't want to have to travel too far out of the city if possible as the
family do not want me hijacking the trip with flying.
