What Students and Pilots Say

★★★★★ 10 months ago

Having been to a few flight schools throughout my flying career (part 61 and 141), Epic has incredible to work with. Great communication, expectation setting, quality of instruction, and plane maintenance. They hold their planes to a very high standard in terms of maintenance and it’s great to know I don’t have to worry about cut corners. Highly recommend if you want to learn to fly!

I am just about to begin my training with Epic, but the process has been incredibly smooth thanks to Kayla Aveille, who has made the process seamless. I also had an incredible discovery flight with Dylan Slatinsky out of KAPA, who was very knowledgeable and guided me through a discovery flight with them.

My 13-year-old son and I flew with Noah recently and I couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. Noah was patient and very helpful to my son, who is now asking when he can start flight school.

What a great experience. Alyana Narcisse helped us sign up for their flight program and was a huge reason we chose Epic.

Planning Your Training Here

Planning training at a local school like Epic Flight Academy trades the academy's speed for flexibility and often meaningfully lower total cost. The pay-as-you-fly model keeps your money in your control, and training two to three lessons weekly around work is the proven rhythm, enough frequency to retain skills without the academy's all-in schedule. The variable to manage is momentum: local-school students who succeed book standing lesson slots, fly year-round, and treat ground study as homework rather than something that happens at the airport. Ask about aircraft scheduling depth, instructor availability on your target days, and examiner wait times in Englewood, the three friction points that stretch part-time timelines.

What Flying in Colorado Teaches You

Training in Colorado means learning density altitude for real. Front Range airports sit around a mile above sea level, so students here calculate performance numbers that sea-level pilots only meet in textbooks, and summer afternoons teach genuine go and no-go judgment. The reward is airmanship: mountain wave, gusty frontal passages, and some of the busiest general aviation airspace in the country under Denver's Class B. Airline recruiters know what a Colorado logbook means.

How to Evaluate Epic Flight Academy on Your Tour

Every school on this directory gets the same advice from us, because the fundamentals don't move. Walk the ramp and count how many aircraft are down for maintenance. Ask how many lessons a week they can actually schedule you, and how far out the booking calendar runs. Ask for first-attempt checkride pass rates and how long students wait for an examiner. And keep your money in your control: pay as you fly, or in small blocks with clear refund terms.

Then weigh the location itself. Training in Englewood means building your early hours in Colorado weather and airspace, and both become part of your airmanship. Our school-selection guide covers the full vetting checklist, and the financing page maps scholarships and loans that apply at schools like this one.

Common Questions About Training at Epic Flight Academy

How long would my training take here?

Part-time students flying two to three lessons weekly typically earn a private certificate in six to twelve months and a commercial certificate in two to three years, with pace set by your calendar and the weather. Consistency decides everything: standing lesson slots beat sporadic bursts by months.

What will it cost, and can I get help paying?

Get Epic Flight Academy's current rates directly; published numbers age fast in this industry. Nationally, plan on $80,000 to $120,000 from zero time to commercial certificates before instructing pay starts offsetting costs. Our financing guide maps the loans, scholarships, and airline cadet programs that apply here, and several scholarship cycles go undersubscribed every single year.

How should I arrange a visit?

Call ahead and ask for a tour on a normal training day, not a quiet one. Use the directions button above to plan the drive to Englewood, arrive early enough to watch ramp operations, and bring the vetting checklist from this page. A school proud of its operation will show you everything; hesitation is itself an answer.
