Just curious what you all think a good lead does/doesn't do. What makes someone a good lead vs just a lead vs an a**hole? |

I have worked with dozens of chief pilots, most of the good ones don't want the job, but they take it because they feel they're doing service to their peers. They don't have to be the best pilot, but they have to be good enough to have the respect of the others. They have to be fair, minded, and understanding yet not afraid to hold people accountable. A good chief pilot at the same time shields pilots from unnecessary noise, coming down and shields management from unnecessary noise coming up, but makes sure all the necessary information gets through. |

Well, im starting to think it isnt. But Ive never heard of a "lead pilot". its not an FAA reccognized term and none of the companies I worked for had a "lead pilot". Must be an EMS thing. |

hey "if you have to ask".. let's all just hope YOU'RE not a lead, because by saying it's a bad sign in asking how to be a better manager it's obvious you are/would be a terrible one |

Well considering lead pilots don't have any supervisory roll anymore, pretty much anyone can be a lead. They are only there to do fuel audits, and keep aviation things updated. Base supervisors are responsible for everything. They May ask leads to help with things like the schedule and other busy work. That's it. They don't tell the other pilots what to do. Period. |

Absolutely not worth the pay bump. If ya want to live a saner life, stay away from that position. Way to much politicking. |
