Heli Pilot Tries Flying Open Cockpit Gyrocopter
In this episode, a helicopter pilot steps out of her comfort zone and takes to the skies in an open cockpit gyrocopter for the very first time! After previously calling gyros “the worst of both worlds,” she sets out to explore whether they deserve a second chance—and what follows is an adrenaline-fuelled flight full of sharp turns, challenging landings, and pure, unfiltered aviation joy. Captured at Popham Airfield, this flight showcases the raw, tactile thrill of gyrocopter flying, from the unique controls to the bird-like freedom of open-air manoeuvring. If you're passionate about aviation, gyros, helicopters, or simply love the feeling of flight, this one’s for you.
