    WOW! Why did YouBoob recommend this to me 5 years too late? What amazing scenery.

    That was the most coolest gyro flying I've ever seen. I love it when they aboard the ferry boat and put regular gas at gas stations. That's awesome.

    Amazing how accommodating the Ferry & Police were. It looked great from here but obviously not a patch on actually being there, we can see it in your expressions. Thanks for sharing.

      I can't see P&O ferries from the UK being so helpful or accommodating.

    I love the way it drives onto the ferry just like any car. Sehr cool video. I was lucky enough to travel Iceland in September 2015, and Lake Myvatn was the first place-name I recognised, and when you showed that first ash-crater I recognised it as the one I walked up and circumnavigated its rim!

    Wow, whilst I was n't there... I sort of was...Thanks for the great impression. Gyro-planes absolutely rock. They would be my choice if I wanted to fly privately. The safeness of the concept attracts me, as does the relative low take-off and landing speed.

    @gyrokyro 8 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Awesome adventure...amazing scenery...were you concerned where you would put down the aircraft if you lost an engine? Some of the terrain looked rather harsh for emergency landing...I love how you were able to drive on the streets to get gas and take off on their roadway. The aerial footage was incredible...I'm sure Auto-Gyro would love to get some of your HD videos...great job!

    • @lucaslucas9580
      @lucaslucas9580 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      They take them risk, because I didn't see safe place to land, in the most of the cases

    • @codmott286
      @codmott286 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      single engine flight over rough terrain is always a risk. The stopping distance of a gyro is only about 30 feet honestly so they could pretty much land wherever they want with minimal risk, even if it meant on sharp jagged rocks or the water.

    That was really cool. My god that country has more rain than England but those gyrocopters seemed to be able to cope with it. There were smiles all the way so it must have been great fun. I'd love to do it.

  • @forestsoceansmusic
    @forestsoceansmusic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yes, the scenery is amazing. I think a lot of it is due to the lack of large trees, so the various mountains and mesas stand out in all their naked glory. I love the way they can drive along the road and motor into a gas station, and all they need is 95 Octane. (I was very lucky with the weather there in the latter half of September 2015 -- not much rain at all. Never really cold, except Aurora Borealis watching the first night on a high mesa just West of Reykjavik.)

    I rode around Iceland on a motorbike in 2016 but it is so breathtaking to see the country from the air! I also immediatly recognised Hirtshals in Denmark.
    Hats off to you guys!
    Where did you land in Seydisfordur?

  • @forestsoceansmusic
    @forestsoceansmusic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    4:50 - 4:55 in -- that's Dettifoss, the largest falls in Europe by volume of water falling per second. Nice to see from the air, but you really only appreciate its size and wildness standing close to the falls from the top of the drop (I've got a few photos of it). Also, the downstream canyon is much bigger than it looks from the air, but it's cool to see it again from this different perspective.

    No way you could do this in Australia... You'd be arrested for driving them on the road... Spend the night in an outback police station... Court next working day... Confiscate your vehicle for 28 days... Big fine...

    Wow. Absolutely fabulous. I'm soooo envious, lol.
    I though the police were very helpful.. what a nice gesture to escort you and then watch you fly right of the road.. amazing.
    Iceland looks lovely.. but bleak !!
    I must admit, I was a little white knuckled as you crossed the glacier.. all those deep cracks.. not exactly a good emergency landing site.
    Keep them coming, I loved this one. what a life.

  • @chipchap42

    Cool - very cool indeed guys! Loved the ferry driving. Did you have to arrange that specially first? I'm picking mine up from Texas next month and flying it back to California - really looking forward to it, but I don't think the scenery will be quite the same. Thx for posting

Dreams can become reality. I told my colleagues at work that one day I come to work flying it. I love those machines. Thanks for the videos.

  • @forestsoceansmusic

    5:13 to 5:15 -- the computer screen display says 5.790 feet (European-style notation), whereas the "ALTITUDE" dial seems to be reading just under 5 thousand 900 feet. Which one is right? But more importantly, I notice there is a label (in some Scandinavian language) just under the "ALTITUDE" dial saying 'max. height 3500ft' ! Que?

    Dreamer: "Someday we will have flying cars!"
    Gyro pilot: "I've had one for ten years, it's just not street legal."
    But seriously, I have a question: I've watched gyroplane videos for over eight hours, and the beginning of this video shows the first time I have seen a pilot flying without the stick trying to shake the finger nails off of his hand. Why is this aircraft different? Did they customize it?

  • @coalachaos6486
    @coalachaos6486 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dude!!! How cool is that please!!?? I have a question: How have you made it possible to "land out" at the ferry gate? How can one make a legal request for that? I mean,... I am flying for the navy and know that aviation in Europe is a highly restrictive thing,... but man, how?? If there is a way to make this legal, I might considering getting a gyro too. Oh by chance, do you know if there is a chance for IFR certification for these types as well? That would be boos. Cheers!

    I was stationed in Keflavik from 1970 to 1973 with COMFAIRKEF primarily to detect and track Soviet submarines transiting around the North Cape and into the Atlantic on their patrols. My wife and I had our first daughter there in 1972. She has dual US/Icelandic citizenship. We can't even read her Icelandic birth certificate. :) It is really a beautiful country in many ways. Icelanders were very friendly to the US forces stationed there at that time.

    Gentlemen, as I viewed this many ears ago, It popped back up on my likes (sure glad it did).
    I kind of remember the first time I watched this video, and the feelings that I felt just enjoying the magnificent beauty and grandeur of that incredible part of the world.
    We all look for words to describe such beauty, but as I mentioned earlier - I still can't find the right words?
    Simply Fantastic!!!

  • @forestsoceansmusic

    Yeah those glaciers were amazing. So cool to see them from the air like this. Very appropriate music too, reminds me of in-between instrumental music from Genesis' "Selling England By The Pound" and "Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" albums.

  • @forestsoceansmusic
    @forestsoceansmusic 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's a shame you didn't ask the locals for the amazing things that you could see from the air. From 4:48 to 4:49 (best to watch it at 1/4 speed to catch it) there are two little (best to watch in full-screen) black rectangles (thinner vertically) in the upper right corner of the screen. The one to the right (rounded arch top) is a huge cave, and I could only get a tantalising glimpse from my ground shots a little down stream from the falls.
