Gorgeous Gyroplane Flight - Northern California from a Magni M16 Gyroplane

Take a breathtaking gyroplane flight with me over California's stunning landscapes! This fun travelogue showcases the incredible views captured with my new Insta360 X4 camera during a recent flight from Cameron Park to Petaluma, CA.

This is a slight detour from my recent pilot interviews, but I enjoy sharing the "Motorcycle in the Sky" experience you get flying a Gyroplane. Let me know in the comments if you are interested in more Gyroplane content.

I will continue the series of pilot interviews exploring interesting planes with more to come - so please subscribe to ensure you don't miss my future content!
