Couple of things Dan.

There was a big feature in Photo Plus all about this subject so might be worth hunting the article out. If you can't find it let me know and I'll scan it in for you. The nuts of the article said to take a medium reach zoom lens and if photographing through glass, get a rubber lens hood to press against the window to reduce reflections.

Also, I'm booking a microlight flight to photograph the coastline in Northumberland. I decided on a microlight rater than a helicopter as there is no glass. I think they are cheaper too so might be worth a look.
