Airline Pilot Training Courses
Pilot training courses at Leading Edge include not only the latest syllabus, but also the additional knowledge and skills that airlines tell us they look for in newly qualified pilots. This way, we can offer our students the most comprehensive airline preparation curriculum for their future career.
Whether you choose a full or part-time course, you’ll be able to make the most of our innovative technologies and learning environments, while gaining the technical and soft skills that airlines value.
Our Pilot training pathways
Integrated (LEAP)
Our all-inclusive, fast-track, full-time pathway, designed to take you from zero flying experience to airline ready in as little as 18 months. This is our fastest, most structured route to the commercial flight deck.
Modular (MAP)
Our Modular Course is a step-by-step programme with several stages. It can be undertaken full or part-time and the training modules can be completed back-to-back or spread out over several years if needed.
