What Can I Expect

Fantastic gyrocopter flights in Kent! We are offering vouchers for a full range of flight durations, setting off from Rochester Airport just south of Rochester and Chatham, with 15, 30, 60 and 90-minute flights available.

Pilot instructor Kai Maurer has been flying gyrocopters for many, many years - and in fact his gyro school was one of the first to work with us here at Into The Blue. With well over 6000 hours of flying under his belt, you're in safe hands with Kai, who is also author of the ‘The Gyro Quick Guide' handbook.

Originally, gyrocopters were tandem-configuration, with open cockpits. Some modern versions have closed cockpits (so there's no hair blowing about!) and the seating is side by side, so you can see what your instructor is doing. This gyro school in Kent has a fantastic fleet of both types of gyroplane, including the latest aircraft from the likes of MTOSport, Calidus and Cavalon.

And we have to agree, modern gyrocopters are brilliant. They're like a hybrid of a helicopter and a fixed wing plane. They are super popular due to their agility and simplicity of design. Did you know a gyro can stand still in the air and whizz along at 100 mph with ease?

As for where you get to fly on your experience? Needless to say, you're in North Kent and so within minutes of taking off you could be glimpsing the see, historic dockyards and that famous Kentish rolling countryside, all from your seat in the gyro.

If you're looking for a gyrocopter flight over Kent with a highly experienced pilot to show you the ropes, these gyro experiences out of Rochester Airport are the perfect choice!
