JUST WANNA FLY-#80 Leo Kiesling- lead kiting instructor with AirCapital PPG Wichita, Kansas

Meet Leo: www.AirCapitalPPG.com Born in Las Vegas, Nevada, into a family of professional wrestlers, Leo has always had an appetite for adventure. Working as a street artist in his early teens, Leo pursued broadcasting as a career in the mid 90’s. Working in both radio and television he made a name for himself in the Las Vegas Valley. Looking for new opportunities Leo started traveling for ESPN as a camera man in early ‘02 and landed in Kansas a few years later. After several years in Wichita television, Leo took a leap into the world of Special Effects in 2011 and began working in the Haunt and film industry. Leo continues to make his living as a sculptor, painter and professional artist today. In 2018, while browsing for adventure, Leo watched a YouTube video on powered Paragliding and never looked back. After searching the Wichita area for a PPG instructor, to no avail, he put the idea on a shelf. Then in late 2019, one of Leo’s coworkers posted on Facebook about paramotors in Wichita. Thrilled, he followed the trail back to AirCapital PPG. After meeting with Bryant and checking out the equipment, Leo started training February 2020! After a thrilling summer of Kiting and ground school, Leo’s first flight was August 23rd of that same year. Leo has become very enthusiastic and safety conscious about all aspects of the sport. “I would have to say first flights are my favorite!! Watching someone go from first day of kiting to their first time in the air is truly special!” With a fondness for people and a love for flying, Leo is always learning and striving for excellence, through experience and commitment, at AirCapital PPG. #AirCapitalPPG #Paramotor #PPG #Justwannafly #Pilot #PPGPilot
