Captain H/F

Ledcor

Date Posted: Jan 11, 2026
Job Status: Full-Time
Summit Air is recruiting a Seasonal Captain to join our United Kingdom based operations, supporting the Royal Air Force Falcons Parachute Display Team and UK Military Parachute Training programs.

This is a once-in-a-career opportunity for a Canadian pilot to fly operational military parachuting missions and be a participant in air shows across the UK and Europe. You will work alongside some of the world’s most elite military parachutists, operating specialized aircraft in demanding, hands-on environments—no automation, no autopilot, just pure flying.

Contract Duration: If you are an experienced captain looking for flying that only a handful of pilots will ever experience, meaningful, challenging, and unlike anything available in Canada, this role delivers exactly that. The season typically includes travel throughout England and Scotland, Ireland, France, Belgium, Portugal, Switzerland, Slovakia, Czech Republic and includes iconic events such as Formula 1 at Silverstone.

No UK work visa required for eligible candidates under NATO agreements.

Operate Dornier 228 and Skyvan aircraft safely and efficiently
Stay current with all available flight information, including weather, and applicable NOTAMs where available, and determine fuel and oil requirements
Complete the aircraft pre-flight inspection, as well as all post-flight duties
Work as a trusted leader and team member to ensure that customer objectives are accomplished safely

Canadian Airline Transport Pilot License, Valid Class 1 Medical

  • Previous experience with Dornier, Skyvan, Casa 212, Cessna 208 or Twin Otter or similar types considered an asset
  • Pre-employment Drug & Alcohol test
  • UK or EU passport an asset
