Flying Leap’s logo is a triskelion formed from three interlocked leaves, each forming a distinctive letter. The upper and leftmost leaf forms the letter “F”, for “Flying”. The upper right leaf forms a backward “L” in motion, for “Leap”. The single bottom leaf is a “V”, for “Vineyards”. The three leaves together form a logogram for “FLV”, the letters of the Company’s name. The leaves themselves represent three distinct themes. The first is the lifelong friendship of the Company’s three founders, established by the interlocked configuration of the logogram. The second is the leaves themselves, which symbolize Flying Leap’s agricultural basis and founding as a farming operation. The third is the angular clocking of the leaves, which form a propeller symbolizing the three founders’ diverse backgrounds in military aviation.
