North Shore Gyrocopter Intro Flight

Tour Highlights

Lift off over Oʻahu’s North Shore in an open-air gyrocopter as wind rushes past and the vivd blue coastline stretches wide below, turning flight into pure freedom. Once you reach cruising altitude around 1,000 feet, you’re invited to take the controls and feel what it’s like to truly soar amongst the clouds.

  • Take off from historic Dillingham Airfield on Oʻahu’s North Shore
  • Fly low and open-air above beaches, fields, and reef-lined coast
  • Experience hands-on flight with a veteran gyrocopter instructor
  • Learn how gyroplanes stay smooth in wind and turbulence
  • See the North Shore from a rare, unobstructed aerial perspective

Quick Local Tip: You’ll fly directly over Kaʻena Point, the wild northwest tip of Oʻahu that’s only reachable by hiking because there are no roads around the point. From the air, the land opens up to reveal the entire West Side and North Shore in one sweeping view few people ever see.

What to Expect

Your adventure begins at Dillingham Airfield, located on the North Shore of Oahu, with a warm welcome from Jay Eisenberg, a veteran flight instructor with over two decades of aeronautical expertise.

After a brief orientation, you'll step aboard the 2022 AutoGyro MTO Classic, a marvel of aviation technology. As you ascend, the Oahu coastline unfolds beneath you, offering a spectacular view of the North Shore.

Feel the rush of the wind and the freedom of the skies as Jay expertly navigates the gyrocopter. You'll learn about the aircraft's unique features, such as its autorotation capability and its resilience in high winds and turbulence, ensuring a smooth and safe experience.

As you soar over the stunning landscapes, Jay will share insights about flight control, aerodynamics, and aviation safety. You'll have the opportunity to engage with the controls, feeling the exhilaration of piloting this remarkable aircraft.
