Experience the thrill of open-cockpit gyrocopter flights over Manchester! Depart from City Airport near the Trafford Centre and behold stunning aerial views of Manchester and Salford's landmarks.
City Airport, located west of Salford, stands out as a unique tourist destination. It offers various aircraft to observe, family events, the delightful Veterans Garage café, and the Sopwith Bar and Grill.
The flying school specialises in gyrocopter flight training, and you can enjoy the closed-cockpit Magni M24 Orion for a more traditional flying experience. The Magni M24 Orion, with dual controls and a side-by-side configuration, allows you to observe the pilot.
Your gyrocopter flight from Manchester City includes a comprehensive lesson. You will receive a pilot briefing and be provided with a flying suit, helmet, and a headset communication system for MTO Sports lessons.

John Morris
An amazing experience.
After a pre flight briefing, from Dave, the pilot, who fully explained the workings of the gyro copter, I was kitted out with flight suit and helmet, before taking to the skies.
Once in the air I was invited to take control of the stick, what a buzz!!
I want to do it again!
