Activity description :

Olivier will take you on board his gyrocopter for an introductory microlight flight, during which you'll have the chance to hold the rudder stick. A bit of theory, a bit of practice, and above all, a lot of thrills! You'll fly aboard an ultralight gyrocopter, a helicopter-like craft renowned for its maneuverability and stability, or you can take your first flight in a VIP gyrocopter with an enclosed cabin.

Lille: the ideal playground for ultralight pilots

Departing from the Marcq-en-Barœul aerodrome, you'll take to the skies to discover the flamboyant landscapes of the Nord region. You'll fly over Lille and its surroundings: the Grand Place, the Palais des Beaux-Arts and Lille's Vieille Bourse will all seem tiny.

Course of the flight :

  • Welcome at the airfield: presentation of the microlight, ground briefing (15 minutes) and safety rules.
  • Boarding of the microlight and final briefing before takeoff.
  • Take-off and flight of 15 or 45 minutes, depending on the formula chosen.
  • You' ll gradually take the controls and perform several maneuvers. This is your chance to discover how the aircraft reacts to your movements.
  • Soft landing.
  • Debriefing: you'll sit down for a drink and give your feedback to the pilot.

Don't wait any longer to enjoy this extraordinary experience! It's the ideal activity to offer as a gift.

A great ultralight / gyrocopter experience. I came away with stars in my eyes. Thanks to Stéphane for his warm welcome and kindness. If I had to do it again, I'd do it without hesitation.

At the top. Activities booked for an EVG. The groom-to-be was delighted! Despite the fact that the gyrocopter pilot was not available on the date ordered on funbooker, the manager of the aviation company in Bondue contacted me, and proposed an introductory flight in flight 1 hour of ULM plane Eurostar. Maybe less fun than the gyrocopter, but more classy. On-site purchase of a 4k video on micro SD for 30e. Thanks to our super-friendly pilot vincent.

Great experience, the driver is very attentive and accommodating. I recommend it A unique experience in an unusual aircraft. If it's your 1st time in an ulm, it's more of a baptism than an initiation.
