Gyroplane Flying Northern Ireland experience

The sky is the limit with our Gyroplane Flying Northern Ireland experience! Gyroplanes or Gyrocopters, are a cross between a fixed-wing aeroplane and a helicopter. They are a type of rotary-wing aircraft that uses lift generated by wings revolving around a central mast. It looks similar to a helicopter however, uses a non-powered rotor to create lift, and an engine-powered propeller, to provide thrust.

A gyroplane needs around 50 to 125 metres to take off but only a metres to land, which makes them one of the safest aircraft to fly. After a quick brief, you will be suited up and strapped into your gyroplane, for a breath-taking trip around the countryside.

Your qualified instructor will give you a quick rundown on the technical detail before showing you what the aircraft is capable of. You can sit back and enjoy the scenery, or if you want to get hands-on, you will be able to take the controls and fly the plane yourself!

In a Gyrocopter you won’t feel turbulence. It is possible to fly lower than small aeroplanes and helicopters without compromising safety, so you will feel safe while you enjoy outstanding scenic views. If you have always wanted to fly, then this is the perfect activity for you!
