Biz Jets, Ag Flying, GA etc.The place for discussion of issues related to corporate, Ag and GA aviation. If you're a professional pilot and don't fly for the airlines then try here.
Has anyone up to date information on LEA ? Are they Interviewing ? What format does it entail if they are ? What are they like to work for ? Any information would be helpful thanks
If you look in the back of last week's Flight International, you'll see an advert for LEA, looking for Legacy, Citation 2, Citation Excel and Challenger pilots.
I can't remember the requirements off the top of my head.
I would suggest you look at the AG Flying and Biz Jets forum as i know a few of the LEA pilots prowl the threads there.
From the pilots i see, they are a very nice bunch and are all very friendly but i no nothing of the company as a whole.

I have worked with them for many years chartering their aircraft and, as a whole they are a very professionally run operation.
Correct email address for Pilot jobs @London Executive
Don't bother disturbing Karl Ratcliffe regarding possible flightdeck positions he's a very busy chap! Try Neil Onions, Chief Training Captain, also a very busy chap, but he's the one who will be doing your sim check! Email your cv to: pilotjobs@flylea.com and you should get at least an acknowledgement that your CV has been received. www.flylea.com LEA need crew, so if your CV contains the right minima you could well be in luck! Make sure you're happy to self-fund a type rating though...... Good company, with expansion plans that are actually in progress......compare that to a lot of other GA operators, " we've got GV's/Globals/A319ACJ/BBJ's on order" that never actually arrive!!! Hello chileconcarne27! Thanks for the Hot Chocolate(s)!!
The company appears refreshingly courteous in acknowledging CVs. Even those that come from pilots who, whilst perhaps having the paper qualifications, have become so old that they have forgotten whatever it was that they ever knew about flying.
The reality is that most of us are normal human beings who remember what it was like to be a 'wannabe' and are happy to help. The problem is that a lot of employees of a company like LEA are doing the jobs of two (some more) and fly a full program, so there are not enough hours in the day.
We value the efforts potential employees make and if your face (or figures) fit you will hear..................................
I'm F/O on the Beech 200 with 1500Hrs and 200 on type, UK-JAA fAPTL, fluent in English and French, and currently Continued Airworthiness Manager with my company, on top of that.
Hello 5 Rings! I'm sure you would be in with a very good chance! LEA has a policy of promoting from within, so a lot of KingAir crew are moving up the ladder. A KingAir Captain started his Excel rating this week, so there are opportunities arising all the time.
Our KingAirs do a lot of Air Ambulance work, and 'Go Now' type operations for organ transplants, so as long as you could live within 1 hour maximum from Stapleford then you would almost certainly get an interview.
