Why MySky.africa exists

Two audiences. One inevitable answer.

For the owner: the wings club nobody else on earth can offer you. For the OEM: the African market — already operational, already flying — with the door held open exactly once.

For gyroplane owners

The most desired wings club in the world.

Built for the few hundred people on earth who own a gyroplane — and actually want to fly it across Africa.

  • 01Access nobody else has. Five countries, twelve charted circuits, lodge airstrips that don't appear on any chart. Cleared by us — flown only by members.
  • 02Your machine, our continent. Hangar at Wonderboom under FlyJetStream's SACAA AOC. Fly your own ship on our circuits — or step into the fleet when yours is in service. One contract.
  • 03A roster, not a customer list. Founders are introduced, not enrolled. EU pilots, African operators, conservationists, OEMs. The dinner is the asset.

And yes — SARB, customs, AOC, fuel, lodge bookings, insurance: all on one invoice. That's the floor, not the offer.

For OEMs — ELA · AutoGyro · Magni

First mover. Only mover.

There is one African operating layer for gyroplanes. We built it. The only commercially viable route into this market — already in place, already flying.

  • 01Already built. SACAA AOC live (FlyJetStream). Two hubs operational (Wonderboom + Longmere). Twelve circuits charted. Lodge contracts signed. Insurance underwritten. Founders on the wait-list.
  • 02The only demo channel into Africa. 60 paying Founders + 1,500 EU pilot leads a year sit in your aircraft, on co-named circuits — “The ELA Okavango”, “The Magni Escarpment”. Every flight is a sales meeting you didn't have to staff.
  • 03First-mover lock-in. Lead Partner takes 5-year exclusivity on the African operating layer. Whoever comes second pays to rent the network we built for the first.

You sell the ship. We deliver the continent.

The dual-hub model

Two hubs.
All of Southern Africa in reach.

ELA Aviación gyroplane in flight against blue sky — open-rotor, two-seat, the MySky.africa Founders aircraft

The aircraft

Glide over Africa.
See it the way a bird does.

Gyroplanes drift on a free-spinning rotor — quiet, low, unhurried. Skim rolling hills, follow river lines through the valleys, slip between escarpments and watch the herds move below. No cabin glass, no engine noise drowning the bush. By far the most intimate way to experience Southern Africa from the air.

Quiet luxury

"Four gyros on the salt pan at first light.
The host knows your name. The room is open."

The flying

Open rotor.
Africa underneath you.

Coast, escarpment, salt pan, ocean break. Five hundred feet, ninety knots, no cabin glass. The aircraft is half the experience — the other half is what it lets you fly into.

Open-rotor, 90 knots, no cabin glass between you and the herd. Then you land, the host knows your name, and dinner is on the coals.

Built. Flying.
Yours to walk into.

The African operating layer for gyroplanes already exists. SACAA AOC live. Two hubs running. Twelve circuits charted. Lodge contracts signed. Founders on the wait-list. There is no second one being built.

Lead Partner takes 5-year exclusivity on the channel. Whoever comes second pays to rent what we built for the first.

Problem

Africa is closed without infrastructure

Owners won't ferry a €180k machine into a continent without a hangar, an AOC, or a parts chain. The demand is there. The floor under it isn't — until us.

MySky.africa fix

Wonderboom + Longmere hubs operational. SACAA AOC active. Factory-trained engineers. Your aircraft, supported, flying weekly.

Problem

Trade-show demo doesn't sell six-figure aircraft

PDF brochure, static stand, a buyer who's never sat in the seat. That's the OEM sales reality today — and why African market penetration is near-zero.

MySky.africa fix

Permanent demo fleet flying in front of 60 paying Founders + 1,500 EU pilot leads a year — on co-named circuits like 'The ELA Okavango'.

Problem

First-mover window closes once

There is one African operating layer being built. We are it. The Lead Partner slot — exclusivity, brand placement, board observer — gets filled exactly once.

MySky.africa fix

5-year category exclusivity. Co-branded circuits. Every Founder dispatch is your sales meeting. Second mover pays to rent the network.

€100–250k

Co-invest

Sit inside the Founders cohort. Brand placement on every dispatch. Board observer at €250k+.

What we're selling

One product.
Three audiences.

The pitch we're walking into ELA Aviación, Magni, and AutoGyro with — and the same numbers we're showing capital partners and anchor lodges.

01

The product

A Botswana-domiciled membership that turns African gyroplane flying into one invoice. Hours, hangar, fuel, lodges, ground crew — bundled. 60 Founders, year one.

02

The unit economics

€48k Founder fee. €6k+/member margin after ops. 70% SA-flown for SACAA compliance. Asset-light: we operate, partners own the machines.

03

The ELA-specific ask

4-unit launch fleet (2 ELA-10, 2 Eclipse). Year-1 loan against guaranteed minimum hours, brand placement on the Okavango Circuit, and a co-investment slot.

04

The sequence

Collect signed LOIs from each pillar — OEM, lodges, sponsors, anchor investors — then close the BP and the raise. We're at LOI stage, not pitch deck stage.

Curated · Operated · Conserved

A standalone business.
Powered by serious partners.

MySky.africa is its own company — Botswana-domiciled, with its own team, shareholders and balance sheet. We own everything that flies: FlyJetStream operating partnership, SACAA approvals, pilot training, fleet integrity, route safety. Heron Africa owns everything that welcomes you on the ground. WeLoveParks turns every seat sold into tangible conservation.

01

Every guest is a steward

A transparent contribution from each circuit booking goes directly to WeLoveParks-vetted projects in the parks we operate over.

02

Every aircraft tells a story

OEMs in our fleet rotation can market this to buyers: 'when you buy, you contribute to African conservation' — verifiable, audited, real.

03

Every park stays wild

Funding flows to rangers, community projects bordering parks, and habitat restoration — the things that actually keep wilderness wild.

MySky.africa · Heron Africa · WeLoveParks.org — three names, one promise.

Membership by approval only

Capping at 60 Founders Year 1.

Five remain. Each contract is with MySky.africa BW. Each operation is run by FlyJetStream under SACAA AOC.
