A love story reached new heights this weekend as a man orchestrated a one-of-a-kind marriage proposal during a helicopter flight over Bydgoszcz, Poland. On Sunday, December 1, Robinson R44 helicopter SP-ORP took off with three passengers aboard—pilot Jacek, Alexander, and Oliwia. However, only two of them knew that this was no ordinary flight.
A Sky-High Plan Months in the Making
Alexander had contacted Jacek back in September with an ambitious idea: to propose to his girlfriend, Oliwia, using a custom flight path that spelled out “MARRY ME” and included a heart shape visible on live flight tracking apps. Jacek carefully designed the route, ensuring the plan adhered to airspace restrictions and avoided busy areas.
A Perfect Proposal
On the day of the proposal, the couple climbed into the back of the helicopter, with Oliwia unaware of the surprise awaiting her. About 15 minutes into the flight, Jacek began the intricate maneuvering required to create the message in the sky. Over the course of an hour, the pilot completed the stunning design that was visible on Flightradar24.
At the perfect moment, Jacek gave Alexander a subtle signal. Alexander asked Oliwia to check their flight path on the app, and as she pulled up the message on her phone, he pulled out an engagement ring.
A Happy Ending
To everyone’s delight, Oliwia said yes. The couple celebrated their engagement in the sky, with smiles and laughter marking the joyful moment.
Sharing Their Joy
The unique proposal has drawn admiration online, with aviation enthusiasts and romantics alike congratulating the couple. A photo of the happy pair, along with the engagement ring, captures their excitement and love.
Congratulations to the Newly Engaged Couple!
This unforgettable proposal is a reminder that love truly knows no bounds—even those of the sky. Congratulations to Alexander and Oliwia on their engagement!
