Nice one. I've always wanted to see what the inside of a helicopter looks like.

Haha, you got me

On the topic of helitours above Manchester, here's a nice little clip showing some good views at the start (albeit quite old cause City Tower hasn't been reclad). You'll probably learn a thing or two about industry & slums in 1800s Manchester, too!

It's the Arriva buses showing off their new fleet back on February. I just posed it because it's a really good viewpoint.

I first saw Chesterfield's famous church in 1958 on my first railway journey to Newcastle. It was blackened with soot! Re the photograph, don't you find the number of vacant lots used for parking a bit depressing?
