Mountain scenery
Doi Suthep and the hills of the north rise straight out of the valley, with forest, waterfalls and temples on the hilltops.
Why fly gyros in Chiang Mai?
Rice fields and rivers
Paddy fields, the Ping River and lakes make a patchwork of green that looks its best from the air.
Made for gyros
Gyros fly low and slow with a wide, open view: perfect for sightseeing. Their short take-offs and landings need only a small grass airfield.
A friendly flying community
Pilots, instructors and gyro fans from Thailand and around the world.
Where people fly
Chiang Mai International Airport sits right next to the city, so the airspace over the city itself is busy and controlled. So gyro flying here happens from a private airfield in the countryside east of the city, over farmland, hills and lakes.
The airfield
Chiang Mai Airsport
San Kamphaeng, east of Chiang Mai city
A private airfield used for gyrocopter flying, light aircraft and flight training. Flights here pass over rice fields, forests, rolling hills, lakes and rivers.
