Activity
Details
There are manoeuvres that a Gyroplane can do that other aircraft must not do, though they share the same basic controls as a fixed wing aeroplane - stick, throttle, and rudder pedals - Gyroplanes have significant differences. Gyroplanes are significantly more manoeuvrable than a fixed wing aeroplane, and so give a thrilling and unique experience to any adrenaline junkie!
After a short introduction and familiarisation with the aircraft, you will be fitted with flying suits, crash helmets and head sets. Due to the capabilities of gyros they can withstand most weather conditions. After the safety belts are secured, you will be taxied out from the hangar and airborne within a few moments. During your flight you will climb to an altitude of about eight hundred feet and be given the opportunity to take the aircraft controls (weather permitting).
Group Size: Tuition will be on a one-to-one basis. Your flight will last approximately 30 minutes.
