Anyone can learn to fly a gyrocopter. It is only necessary to find a Gyrocopter Flight School, Training Center or Gyrocopter Club, which has a gyrocopter-flying instructor.

The first thing that must be answered before we are to continue any further is, what exactly is a Gyrocopter? In it's simplest terms, the Gyrocopter is a light propeller driven aircraft that produces its lift from a rotor instead of wings, similar to a helicopter. They are not airplanes, they are not helicopters either, but they fly, and they do it in any way that's different, giving their pilots and passengers a flying experience they can't get any other way. They combine ease and simplicity of construction, modest cost and an unparalleled flight envelope.
