## Description (written by the organiser or taken from the event's own pages)

> Visitors are invited to tour the GCH Aviation base in Christchurch for an hour, with the hangar doors open to the public. The tour covers the Westpac Rescue Helicopter and the New Zealand Flying Doctor Service, with a chance to meet the crew, see the helicopter up close and ask questions. The sessions are aimed at adults, and the base is a working site, so enclosed shoes are recommended.
