Dear @flyswiss followers, a very warm welcome from the flight deck: My name is Leonard, I am 23 years old and actually the youngest First Officer here at SWISS.

Becoming an airline pilot was always my childhood dream and thanks to planespotting, I got into aviation very early. Directly after passing my A-levels, I have been working as a Flight Attendant and then joined SWISS as a “ready entry pilot” (i.e. already fully trained) back in 2019.

Especially the combination of flexible working hours, the technical component together with a high level of responsibility as well as the professional travel characterises the profession of a pilot for me.

In the next few weeks, I am going to show you more about the Airbus A320 family, as well as the pilot job in general. And for sure, you`ll get to see some planespotting pictures as well…

But for now, I hope you do already feel comfortable on board and are ready for a flight through the Christmas season.

Greetings, Leo
