Double Eagle Aviation does. They're based at Ryan Field nowadays. Not inexpensive though..

And technically speaking, the flights are basically around AMARC. Only when transiting back to Ryan Field the aircraft is allowed to actually fly 'over' AMARC. It's not like it used to be, alas.

Make sure that you provide them with your passport info in good time, at least 14 days notice I believe.

Good Morning,
Is there any chance of a link or webb address for the Helicopter overflight photos as i would like to compare them with the others from aircraft.
Having done the overflights for many years, i find that an early morning flight on a weekend when the circuit at DM is very quiet and the controllers are board does seem to get a good outcome.
Regards
Steve Coulson

Volare is on Facebook and has some photos of boneyard flights there.

Is this something new that is asked for? Having done the flights a few times this has never been required in the past. Thanks.

As to the passport info, I supplied this about a week in advance, which was ok (in February). So yes, a new requirement as compared to a few years ago.
