Airline Pilots
Resources and Advice Focused for Airline Pilots and their Families
Airline pilot families have access to a range of retirement and health benefit options—including a pre-tax and Roth 401 (k), Backdoor Roth, and other airline specific investment options. These plans often come with complex contribution rules, company match structures, and strategic considerations that can be difficult to navigate on your own.
At Leading Edge, we help you understand the nuances of each option and make informed decisions aligned with your financial goals. With personalized guidance across retirement, health, and insurance planning, we empower you to make informed decisions that support your career and your family’s future.
Navigate Health Emergencies with Confidence
Aviation professionals face unique stressors – especially when it comes to maintaining their medical certification. Even minor health issues can lead to major financial consequences if you’re not properly prepared. As aviation families ourselves, we understand the stakes and the stress. Pilots have several ways to protect their income and their families from the financial impact of health emergencies. These include:
Short-term disability insurance
Long-term disability insurance
Loss of license coverage
Accrued sick time
Emergency savings
We work with pilot families to evaluate their options and create a tailored plan that fits their unique needs. And when a health emergency does occur, we’re here to help you navigate the financial side—so you can focus on recovery.
