gyroplane Safari South Africa

[Jan]

Hi NG!

Do anyone know a company in South Africa that offers
Gyroplane-Safaries. I heard there meight be someone in Johannesburg. I
think they offer Krueger Park and area around. But Google found
nothing. Perhaps here someone knows something about it.

thx for your answers

remember which one but worth a look

Jan,
I do not know about any Gyro Safari to the Kruger park.
As far as I know there are flight restrictions over the park.

Hi

Hennie you are quite right. There are height restrictions over Kruger
Park - Legislation will come into operation shortly where no unauth
flying (excl the park's own aircraft) will be allowed over any
national park under 2500 ft above the highest point in that park. In
Kruger, the highest point is Khandizwe (south-western corner of
Kruger) with a height of around 850m above sea level (i.e. around 2800
ft). This means that no flying in Kruger will be allowed lower than
around 5300ft above sea level.

Hope this helps!
