As from April 1st we will commence our Gyroplane courses. You will learn the full theory behind these amazing craft before trying your hand at flying for yourself under the supervision of our chief Gyrocopter expert. You can chose to learn the engineering aspects of this type of ‘Rotorcraft’; learn to fly them; attend the full A-B initio including taking your flight test and gaining certification or the full extended course (recommended) which covers everything from the theory of flight through understanding weather systems and how to obtain information for flight planning to technical detail of all the components and how to check and maintain them.
Expert Tuition: When it comes to teaching aviation, we give top priority to your safety and your enjoyment. Our permanent Gyrocopter Instructor has already been working hard with us to prepare the best possible experience for you. Tony Melody is considered by many people in this industry to be the leading authority in this field. Tony is an instructor, an instructor’s instructor, an examiner and probably this country’s leading Gyroplane Engineer, who gets to say whether a Gyroplane/Gyrocopter is fit for service in the UK. With more than 40 years experience in air displays all over the world, you could not possibly be in better hands. Please call to arrange either a group lesson or to get started on your own one to one bespoke training course with Tony.
These are amazing craft. Training is not restricted to the UK. Please call for details of pleasure flights or full training in Thailand, Florida or UK
Open Cockpit Gyrocopters are the preference of many
These are incredible machines and are among the better known classics. You may have seen one very similar to this one in the James Bond film you only live twice
I had wanted to fly one of these ever since the James Bond film! I finally got the chance with Tony Melody and I can honestly say this was the best experience of my life. I am determined to get the course done and buy one of these amazing machines. I could not believe how easy they are to land – even if the engine stops!
