Now is your chance to learn to fly a Gyrocopter as you never have before. On this exclusive 90 minute lesson, you'll be sat side-by-side with a qualified instructor in the closed cockpit model known as the Cavalon, with the opportunity to observe an expert pilot at work whilst also getting the opportunity to fly the autogyro yourself, at a CAA approved PPL training school based at Rochester Airport near Chatham in Kent, as you fly over the spectacular East Kent coastline and head - as Chas and Dave once sang - down to Margate and towards the Redsands Towers!
