Budgie the little helicopter and his friends embark on four fun-filled adventures. In “The Airshow”, Budgie leads the fly past at the Harefield Airshow. Crooks try to steal a French plane called Genevieve and Budgie saves the day. A catch of lobsters almost gets the best of Budgie in “Budgie takes a catch”. Budgie gets to spend a night on an aircraft destroyer in “All at sea”. The final story “Boats, boots and Budgie” sees the intrepid helicopter rescue a cow during bad floods.
