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: March – September (UK season), multi-season continuity preferred.

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.
