Job description
ESAO pilots are no ordinary pilots. We fly in some of the most challenging conditions and places in Europe, often single pilot, at low level, in the dark, often hundreds of miles from the nearest safe place to land. It's the closest thing to military flying you'll do outside of the military.
If you think you've got what it takes to thrive in this environment, don't hesitate to apply; immediate interviews for qualified applicants.
