MY husband and I have just had a once-in-a-lifetime trip in a helicopter -- for my 70th birthday and his 75th.

Our daughters, Christine, Pauline and Ann, took us out for lunch and presented us with the tickets. We took off in Skipton on September 29, flying at 1,500ft and for six to seven miles.

It was a wonderful experience and something to remember as it was captured on video. And we received a certificate for the flight.
