Ft Collins, Denver, Front Range & Colorado Springs Are The
2011 Colorado LSA Tour Destinations
Building on the success of the previous tours in Florida and
Georgia, seven LSA manufacturers and distributors are continuing
their flying “roadshow.” Colorado is the next
destination for the tour. Timed to coincide with the Colorado
Pilots Association Rocky Mountain LSA expo at the Front Range
Airport, the intrepid collaborators have scheduled stops in four
airports within the state.
“This tour has created an intimate atmosphere for
purchasers to see planes, without the noise of a show” said
Bill Canino of SportairUSA, one of the participants. “We meet
people who are looking to make that jump to aircraft ownership, but
are unable to get to traditional aviation events” according
to Dave Graham at Legend Aircraft. “It’s a great format
for explaining how easy and affordable it is to get involved with
aviation,” said Chris Dillis of Skyraider Aviation, one of
the tour hosts.
“This is the perfect way to show our customers the
diversity of Light Sport Aircraft and what they are all
about,” Dillis added.
The group has scheduled four stops. They are:

As in previous tours, each venue will open to the public at
1000 each morning. The roadshow concludes with a Q&A session
with a panel of experts at 1800 each evening.
