About the experience
Although they look pretty funky on the outside and don't appear to be the most stable of aircraft - looks can be deceiving! If you're not yet familiar with Gyrocopters you're in for a treat as they are a fun and adventurous way to explore the landscape, especially with this 60 Minute Flight with an open cockpit - meaning you feel every ounce of nature! Taking off in Popham Airfield near Basingstoke, you'll soon be part of a friendly team of instructors who live and breathe everything Gyrocopter. As well as getting to experience what these quirky planes are capable of as you dart across the skies, you'll get to learn all about how to fly them when the instructor hands over the controls to you, and you won't want to miss the chance to have a go! You'll soon find these Gyros are easy to control and get the hang of, and sooner rather than later you'll be booking your next session in no time. With the chance to do a spot of sightseeing, experience a unique form of flying, and try your hand at flying one of these - what's not to like? Get yourself in a gyrocopter!
