Leading Edge Flight Training was an amazing experience from beginning to end. I wanted to gift my fiancé a cool and unique birthday present for him and I read about the company’s ability to give out introductory flights. I spoke with Georgina who is absolutely a pleasure working with from beginning to end. She’s knowledgeable, friendly, and a very lovely person to deal with that provides you with the best experience and the best planes for you. My fiancés instructor was Matt who was an excellent teacher. He’s very knowledgeable and good at what he does while also being fun and very patient with his students. My fiancé had such a great time flying his first plane with Matt! Georgina and Matt gave him an experience of a lifetime and I can’t thank them enough for helping me gift my fiancé with such a cool experience he’ll remember forever. I highly recommend gifting the introductory flight to anyone that has been thinking about flying and wants to try it. They have an array of planes you can fly in and if you enjoyed your time you can decide to take more lessons if you you’d like, but there’s absolutely no pressure to do so. Check them out, they are great!!
Did my PPL here and I'm now an airline pilot, so its a good place to start. I can't say its the fastest way to go and it felt somewhat inefficient at times especially compared to accelerated schools but I felt well prepared for my checkride and renting here for time building was so easy as far as access and scheduling goes. The Diamonds were fun airplanes and I felt very confident about safety they take it seriously. Also the most affordable way to build time in fort collins by A LOT.
Just went on an hour long discovery flight I gifted to my partner for her birthday and it was a blast!
Ethan was our pilot and went out of his way to make it a surprise. I blindfolded her before we arrived and Ethan took walked us silently through the hanger so the first thing she saw was the plane, and then was told ‘you’re going to fly that!’
Our flight was beautiful and fun, going over the front range hills and reservoirs, and Fort Collins where we got to see our home from the sky.
A+++ amazing, the experience was well worth it.
I have very limited experience with them thus far but can say they are super friendly, good communicators, and flexible. My Discovery flight went great and my CFI was informative and confident in addition to the traits already mentioned.
After calling every flight school on the front range, Leading Edge was the only one willing to take me under their wing to get my CFI flight training completed in a short window leading up to my checkride. Truly unbelievable (and unbeatable) customer service and support from everyone on the team here from the owner, to the support staff, and the CFI's. A great experience indeed!
