Want to become a gyroplane pilot? India gets its first DGCA training framework

India

  • On September 29, the DGCA introduced India’s first formal ground and flying training rules for gyroplane pilot licences.
  • A gyroplane is a small aircraft with a free-spinning rotor. It can glide safely if the engine stops, but pilots still need proper training.
  • India still needs dedicated training centres and manufacturing facilities before gyroplane flying can become widely available.
