think some new flight restrictions were put in place a few years back after one too many flight seeing helicopter flew into the canyon wall. Not sure what the hard deck is now, but I don't think they can fly "into" the canyon.
Maverick will fly you into the canyon, but no, you can't get below about 1500' I think. Only way you can do that is if you take the tour that lands you in the Canyon (grand canyon discovery tour from the West rim). I did the Canyon Dream tour. worth every penny.
you can also take the "tribal spirit" tour that takes you to the Sky Walk.

Sky Walk
Tourist trap that the Natives have to rip off people.
You have to lock up all your belongings while on the walk and only pictures you can get...are ones you buy from them. From what I was told by those that went...there is no place besides the walk to walk around and see the canyon from. It's in the middle of nowhere and they charge like $100 to go on the walk.
