About the experience
Feel the wind tousle your hair as you soar through the skies on an exhilarating gyrocopter adventure over East Anglia! This 90-minute escapade, based at Beccles Airfield, promises a day filled with thrills and scenic wonders. Gyrocopters, or autogyros, are these nifty aircraft with a rotor above your head and one behind your seat. They're super lightweight, maxing out at just 500kg. Born in 1923, they've undergone quite the evolution, and the MTO Sport gyrocopter you'll be cruising in from Beccles is a true marvel of engineering, blending comfort and functionality seamlessly. Once snug in your race car seat, your instructor will take the helm. Since gyros have tandem seating and the cockpit is open, it can get a bit noisy up there, so you'll get a headset for communication and a flying suit for warmth. And here's the kicker: you can actually get hands-on with the flying if you're up for it, adding an extra layer of excitement to your adventure. And let's talk about the scenery! Beccles Airfield sits right on the Norfolk/Suffolk border, where lush countryside meets the coast. From grand stately homes and manicured gardens to wildlife reserves and the stunning cliffs and beaches around Lowestoft, you'll be treated to a breathtaking panorama from your lofty perch.
