Flight experience vouchers from Highland Aviation allow you to give that special someone a truly unique gift. 

The Gyrocopter Experience

Your flight experience comprises:

  • A warm welcome from our Operations team, with light refreshments.
  • A discussion with your pilot/instructor where you would like to fly, what you would like to see, and whether you would like to take the controls during the flight.
  • A Pre-flight safety briefing.
  • Walk around the aircraft with an explanation of where things are and what they do.
  • Taxi out to the main runway at Inverness Airport in our Enclosed-Cockpit Gyrocopter, and take-off.
  • Once airborne you have the option to take control of the aircraft or simply enjoy the view.
  • The Enclosed-Gyrocopter is the luxury version of its Open-Cockpit sister.  Its versatility means it is equally at home gently cruising, holding position over the ground, or giving you the thrill ride of a lifetime.  The choice is yours.
  • Throughout your flight your pilot will explain how the aircraft works and will answer any questions you might have.

 

Choose Your Flight Duration:

The following map gives an outline of the likely distances you might want to travel during your flight.  Please read the notes below the map for a fuller explanation.

Map

The time lines show the likely limit of the distances you can travel, and return to the airport in the time allowed.  If you would like to meander around in a particular area, you might consider booking a little extra flight time.

Flight vouchers can be upgraded to longer flight duration's at any time before your booking slot is finalised. Often due to scheduling, this may not be possible on the day.

30 Minute Aeroplane Flight:  See Fort George, the Moray Firth Coastline, the Black Isle, and Inverness City.  Then return to Inverness Airport.

45 Minute Aeroplane Flight:  All the above, plus see the local mountains, Loch Ness, or perhaps the Fyrish Monument and Easter Ross.  Alternatively head South-East to fly through the steep-sided Findhorn River Valley.

60 Minute Aeroplane Flight:  Head into the mountains around Ben Wyvis, or down Loch Ness to explore Urquhart Castle for some Nessie spotting?  Alternatively take to the flight controls with one of our Instructors and try Lesson 1 of the Private Pilot's Licence.

90 Minute Aeroplane Flight:  Tour the Cairngorm Mountains, or the unforgettable route through Strathglass to Fort Augustus and Loch Ness, or meander around the local area taking in all the unspoiled landscape and all the local sights above.  

120 Minute Aeroplane Flight:  Fly the length of the Great Glen to Fort William, Ben Nevis and the Glenfinnan Viaduct (Harry Potter Railway Bridge), or head West through the breath-taking mountain range to the stunning Bays around Ullapool.

Your pilot/instructor will ask you if you have an itinerary in mind.  If not, don’t worry, they know the local area like the back of their hand.  Just sit back, relax, and enjoy your flight.

Occasionally weather conditions may prevent us from flying to particular areas, or may slow our progress.  But rest assured our professional pilots will do whatever they can to satisfy your requirements whilst at all times prioritising flight safety.

Q:  If it's raining or very windy on the day of my flying lesson what should I do?

A:  If the weather is not fit for flying we will try to call you as soon as we are able.  If we haven't already called you, or you are travelling from a distance, please give our reception staff a confirmation call on 01667460361.  We always keep a very close eye on the weather and will do our best to make sure you know well in advance if we need to postpone your flight.  Please note that under these circumstances your voucher expiry date will be automatically extended.

A:  We have a small merchandise shop with various products to remind you of your special day.

Q:  What can my friends/family do whilst I'm flying?
