    Terrible flight school. All you learn is how to fly in circles and to touch and gos all day long. Zero practical skills gained

    Terrible in every way. Predatory loan practices, horrible community members. There is no pilot shortage, graduated can't even get jobs.

    I am disappointed in Colorado Heliops. My son started their…read moreflight school 1.5 years ago. The Rocky Mountain Regional Airport is very busy and my son was having a hard time feeling confident to speak to the air traffic controllers. I asked if a flight instructor could arrange for my son to go with him into the airport's control tower to see how hectic their job was in comparison to my son talking into the headset. They said they had no arrangement for that. Unfortunately, my son took a break from his training. I pulled my $1900 out of his account when they told me it would not secure his place he went from 6th on their list to a 150th.

    I spent over $40,000 and 2 years of my life at this school. The instructors told me to leave after…read moreI got frustrated about not making progress here. They told me that I do not have the skillset to become a pilot and that I should not fly. However, instead of falling on my face, I immediately finished my private helicopter rating in the third busiest class D airspace in the USA. I was finishing college in Denver, and did not want to switch schools and move cities. So, as HeliOps is the only rotorcraft flight school within 6 hours of Denver, I had to fly or drive 6+ hours to and from flight schools to finish my helicopter ratings. I have now finished all my ratings needed to be hired in the industry and have received a total of 4 job offers even before completion of my commercial rating. The instructors at HeliOps are manipulative and do not seek to create qualified, competent pilots for the industry. They say that you are the only one not making progress here (even though almost all students who have stayed at HeliOps to complete their ratings have up to 100 extra hours over minimums, or left and excelled at other schools). Another phrase they like is that students at this school end up with higher hours because they hold them to a higher standard than other schools do. However, students end up with higher hours because there is enough time left between when a student learns a skill (for example, an autorotation) and the next time they fly, so that their skills perish and they have to learn the skill again. Once that skill has been re-learned, it has now been 3+ weeks since the other maneuvers have been practiced and they have to learn those skills again. There are so many skills to be learned in order to pass a checkride that training can take almost an unlimited amount of time if a school is not focused on getting students past a checkride. I have used the same examiner for my instrument rating that HeliOps uses for all their students. They lie about the difficulty of the checkride, what items will be on it, and what the examiner will be looking for in order to justify the fact that they make many students repeat lessons tirelessly. The instructors of HeliOps have told me and many other students to see an aviation therapist/psychologist. If you go here, remember this review when they tell you to see one. To add insult to injury, a previous male Schweizer 300 instructor has been SEXUALLY HARASSING ME through Facebook Messenger. This HeliOps instructor has asked me to allow him to do sexual things to my friends and I, and when I did not comply with his request, he told me to go F*** myself. I write this review with the hope that at least one person will be kept from the pain and financial drain that I have been a victim of through attending flight training at HeliOps. Do not go to this school.

These comments that imply that the staff are disrespectful and/or rude are most clearly an intentional attack against the school for some petty reason. These people decide to lie or exaggerate their experiences because their absurdly delicate ego got hurt. Here is the truth. Front Range has very helpful, very friendly, and very professional staff. Their planes are older. However, they are in incredible shape despite their age. I find no more discrepancies in front range airplanes than brand new airplanes from other places such as other FBO's and Civil Air Patrol. If you are looking for a flight school with well maintained airplanes, professional staff, and an environment conducive to learning the skills needed to be a safe and proficient pilot, I'd highly recommend Front Range Flight School!
