I think rotary flight does tickle the fancy of most aviators of all ages.Myself included,but with the rising costs to get airbourne,modern gyros are now only for the wealthy.The annual insurance cost listed above are massive compared with the microlight equivalent.That said they are very exciting and the modern breed of two seat Gyro's do seem a lot more forgiving than their older single seaters that cast such a shadow over the breed for so many years.I was fortunate to have a back seat flight in an MT03 last summer over at Kirkbride and it did tick all the boxes.I enjoyed it alot.
Sadly though, thats where it stopped.For a fraction of the gyro cost im getting in the air in an open cockpit flying machine.Yes I am limited as to when i can fly compared to the Gyros but hey ho!!
But if the six numbers came up id have one like a shot!!!!
