I did my last simulator on the CRJ with Paul. He was a great partner to have for training. After our sim session we were deadheading home on a Air Canada flight. Air Canada was not so keen on upgrading us regional guys to business class(even if it was wide open),well, Paul walks on ahead of me and sees that there are plenty of open seats in business class(we were supposed to be sitting in the back of the airplane) so he says to the in-charge flight attendant,"are these seats open?"(pointing to row 3). Before she can compose herself and answer Paul he sits down in 3F and points to the sit next to him and sys to me,"let's sit here!"
Well, that's where we stayed for the whole flight home!
I didn't know Paul really well, but what I did know about him I liked!

I am shocked and saddened to hear of Paul’s passing. I worked with Paul at Air Nova/ Jazz between 2000 and 2005 we flew together on many occasions. He would without exception greet me with a genuine smile every time we’d run into each other He was one of my favorite Captains to fly with, always in a pleasant mood and ready for a laugh. He was a true professional and loved what he did and I looked up to him as an example of what a real airline pilot should be. The thing that stood out most for me about Paul was how dedicated he was to his family, he seemed to have the balance between career and personal life figured out. I can only imagine how hard it must be to lose someone so special at such a young age. My deepest condolences go out to the Leonardo Family.

Back in the early Air Atlantic days when Paul was still a first officer, I had the pleasure of flying with him often. Air Atlantic was small by comparison to today's airline's, which meant you got to fly with many of the same people often. Each month when you got your roster one of the first things you did was look to see who you were flying with...this can be good or well let's say not exactly what you'd prefer. When Paul's name showed flying with me, I always knew it was going to be fun and non- eventfull....Wow, was I wrong.
We departed Halifax for Saint John and arrived uneventfull. On departure from Sain John, Paul was at the controls. I will apologize in advance as some of the lingo may be greek for non-flying types.
On the runway cleared for take-off
Me: "you have control"
Paul: "I have control"
Me: " lights are out spoilers are down, auto feather is armed"
Paul: "check"
Me: "V1, Rotate"
.......BANG......#2 engine fails with a loud bang.
Me: gobsmacked, pooping in my pants......
Paul: "Confirm #2 engine Failure"
Me: After clean up... "#2 Engine has failed"
Paul: "#2 Enine shutdown drill"
The rest is all procedural, however what impressed me was how calm Paul reacted in a real emergency. As pilots we all train for the worst case scenario and hope it never happens. My career has led me down the road of the guy that accessess this on a regular basis. I have always wondered what would happen in real life. The simulator world has definitely made us better pilots, however you are never going to see how a human reacts to a emergency until it happens. You can practice as much as you want....when the real thing happens...it won't go as planned.
For you non-flying folks...this was the worst case scenario. We were always at maximum weight on this leg to Boston and the aircraft engine failed at the most critical point....lift off. I was the Captain but Paul was the flying pilot. I am here to tell you that after 36 years in aviation and in the simulator daily, many, many things go wrong and I have never seen a perfect flight test.
Well let me tell you that this was the perfect flight test under the worst conditions and Paul was the super star that nailed it.
15 minutes later we were back on the ground after declaring an emergency and completing all our checks. In true Paul fashion he shows his compassion and professionalism again. I ask him to go out and greet the passengers as they leave the aircraft as most were very upset and scared as he was the flying pilot.
Pauls response was that the passengers would probably like to thank the Captain.....
I relunctantly went out to greet the passengers.....Although they never really knew who their real hero was.... Thank you Paul, I will never forget you.

First, my most sincere condolences to your family. I cannot even begin to understand what you are going through. My thoughts are, and will be, with you. As a fellow family/hockey/aviation fanatic, I always relished the time i got to spend with Paul - His easy going and family-centric attitude was so refreshing and uplifting in our often hectic airport meetings. The next Cape Breton,Czech tournies and our boys hockey were usually at the forefront of most conversations, with family and " how long are you off for, after this?" , following soon after. It was all about getting home to family. For me, Paul will always be remembered for his infectious smile, attitude and ... Screaming down the wing and lettin' it fly!

Karen, I cannot imagine what you are going through. As you will read from all his pilot and airline family, Paul was extremely respected as a pilot and a person. I haven't flown with Paul since the Air Atlantic days but whenever we ran into one another it was like life long friends. Paul and I experienced an engine failure back in 1991, Paul was flying and did the most amazing job. He was kind, professional and above all a family man. We will never forget him.

My sincere condolences to the Leonardo family. While I never did fly with Paul, we have had some good chats in crew rooms and while waiting for flights here or there. It was just recently that Paul was asking how my own dad was doing after the passing of my mom this past summer. My dad and Paul flew together at Air Nova. My thoughts are with you Karen, Anthony, Brandon and Cayden.

I was shocked and so saddened by the news! Paul and I were partners on the BAE 146 course and we started as colleagues and became friends. Over all the years we always chatted about his Family and how proud he was of each. That 7 string guitar his Son played, Paul sang the lyrics to anyone who listened!!!!! He was a beautiful, gentle, caring soul and I am very glad I had the honour of having shared time with him.

Ele costumava falar português e sempre caçoava do meu sotaque brasileiro. Era um dos meus capitães prediletos. Muita força nessa hora difícil e todo meu amor Paul used to always speak portuguese to me and make fun of my brazilian accent. He was one of my favourite captains and he will be missed.

Karen & your boys: What a terrible tragedy to lose someone so loved. Paul was very moved when hearing my recent cancer journey with my grandson, Carter who just turned 8! Cancer seems to chose the young, the old, the healthy, the happy, the strong and the ones that we all believe should just never have to experience it!!! I am very sorry for the loss of your Husband, Father and Friend and I hope your love and special memories help you through this very difficult time!!

Dear Karen and family, It broke my heart when I learned that Paul had died. Much too soon. I lost my Dad when I was just 16 so I can perhaps relate a little to the sadness you feel. I will offer no advice other than to say it was obvious to me when we met briefly in the Toronto airport terminal last year that you have a loving family that will endure through this. Kindest regards, Tom
